Petition Action

Make them pay their own expenses, living, daily or travel like other employees

Petition Details

Who else thinks they should pay for their own travel to and from their place of work? Who else thinks they should be forced to attend their place of work? Who else thinks if relocate they should pay their own rent, pay for their own food, their own daily expenses?

Additional Information

After all its a job and their choice to do it. If I took a job a hundred miles away then the onus is upon me to pay for my commute or to pay to move to my area of work. Why is it different for politicians?

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority makes decisions relating to MP's expenses and is independent of both Parliament and Government.
