Ban MPs having second jobs whilst in office
I believe Members of Parliament should not be allowed to hold second jobs of any sort whilst holding Office.
I believe such jobs could adversely impact an MP's ability to make independent thoughts and actions toward his or her duties to his or her constituency, and instead I think the power of their office may be abused to further their own self-interest.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
