Stop income tax on employees' tips in hospitality industry

Background
Hospitality is a hard industry which many people couldn’t cope working in. We call for the Government to allow for some spontaneous gratuity of one human to another without a punishing tax that proportionally raises very little for the public purse yet is very detrimental to the hospitality industry and its workers.
