Petition Action

Prevent MPs from claiming more than the Average house fuel use price.

Petition Details

Prevent MPs, and anyone else able to have Taxpayer funded full fuel use claims, from claiming more in any year than the Average house fuel use price published by Ofgem.

Additional Information

The aim of this would be to save fuel use and make MPs who claim for fuel use on Second Homes be responsible for any overspend rather than some be profligate while most UK citizens, particularly those who no longer receive the Winter Fuel Allowance, have to be cautious about how much fuel they use.
