Make it law every British citizen can claim the same expenses as MP's.
Allow everyone who is a British citizen claim expenses for day to day living costs permanently, just like MP's do.
This will tackle the current cost of living crisis and help our economy grow by people having more disposable income to spend,save invest and also drastically improve everyone's health and wellbeing.
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:
We understand you would like members of the public to be able to claim the same expenses as MPs. However MPs are reimbursed only for costs incurred in the performance of their parliamentary functions, so it's not clear how members of the public would be able to claim these same expenses. You can find out more about which expenses MPs can claim for here: www.theipsa.org.uk/publications/the-scheme.
You could have a petition calling for the Government to set up a grant scheme to cover all workers' expenses, if that is something you'd like to see happen.
