Alcohol refreshments subsidies for all MPs and the House of Lords to be stopped.
The country is in austerity and cutbacks are forced by Parliament because of debt. Most people have had no salary increase for years, the exception being M Ps. The people no longer wish their taxes to be spent on refreshments or alcohol.
There is evidence in the media that MPs drink too much, get inebriated and do not carry out their duties in a professional manner.
This leads to bribery and corruption. Loutish behaviour and sexist behaviour. It must stop.
