No MPs or Lords claim expenses if they own £1M of property or earn £100K

Petition Details

In my opinion this would help the country to see that MPs and Lords members are not immune to Means Testing, in particular, for their expenses. The £1m and £100K to include spouses. This will also be widened to local council members in due course but at lower levels of property and outside salary.
