Compel MPs to use the public services they are responsible for

Petition Details

I would like the requirements for an individual to be elected as an MP, and to continue to serve as MP, to include the legal obligation to use the public services they themselves are responsible for, primarily the NHS and the State Schooling System.

Additional Information

I understand that there is a two-tier system in the UK for education and healthcare, and that those with deeper pockets can access better treatment and services for their families. I accept this as the nature of the world, however unfair.

However, it is our elected politicians that are responsible for the adequacy of these services. It is morally wrong, and frankly repugnant, that they can mismanage these services, yet opt out of using them for themselves or their family.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about whether to pay for private healthcare, education or other services are a matter for individuals, including MPs, not the UK Government or Parliament.
