Cease all public and taxpayer funding to members of the House of Lords
Currently the House of Lords is an unelected body yet receives substantial allowances paid by taxpayers. This must cease and the position be made entirely voluntary. No more public money of any kind be paid to the House of Lords
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:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. In particular, we're not sure whether you want to end public funding to the House of Lords as an institution or whether you are concerned about Lords expenses. We cannot accept petitions about House of Lords expenses. You can find out more about House of Lords expenses here:

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. You may wish to sign this petition instead: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/209433
