Remove Theresa May’s PDCA if Brexit reduces economic growth

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The Public Duty Cost Allowance (PDCA) is available to former Prime Ministers for "reimbursement of incurred expenses for necessary office costs and secretarial costs arising from their special position in public life", up to a limit of £115,000 per year. Amounts claimed in 2015/16 and 2016/17 are published here:

There's already a petition calling for the PDCA to be stopped, which you might like to sign.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
