The government does charge much tax on the poor, but it charges a lot of tax on those who are trying to escape poverty.
If you have a shitty income and get a bonus the government will steal your bonus from you. If your parents die the government will steal the inheritance from you. If you earn £30-40k (≈£1900-£2400 after tax) the government will charge you extra tax at £40k+ to stop you from saving your way out of poverty.
Taxes effect single people the most as they have to pay more on rent.
