Ban the use of the description "honourable" when making reference to an MP.
I fail to conceive that any current Member of Parliament could possibly be considered to be "honourable". "Despicable" maybe. Maybe they should say "I thank my despicable friend" or "my very despicable friend". Career politicians are a total blight on this Country.
0.7% of British people are millionaires. 78% of politicians are millionaires.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
If you would like the House of Commons to change its practice, so that MPs no longer refer to each other using the terms "honourable" or "right honourable", we could accept a petition calling for that.
We can also find no evidence for the statement that 78% of politicians are millionaires. We can't accept petitions which contain statements that are false.
