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:
It's not clear from your petition who should be included, for example, local government politicians, British Members of the European Parliament and failed candidates. In any case, this isn't something that the Government or Parliament has the power to do. You could submit a new petition asking to give Parliament the power to require, for example, individual MPs to disclose their tax arrangements, but you need to specify what legislative changes or action you want Parliament to take.
