Make the pensions of former Prime Ministers performance-based
I think the government must be held accountable, should deliver upon manifesto pledges and should lead by example. I propose pensions for former PMs be performance-based, starting at basic state pension with extra points awarded for the general state of the country upon retirement from office.
I think that performance awards should consider:
- Time served in office
- Relative wellbeing of the populace and overall satisfaction of the PM’s performance
- General diplomatic ability
- Performance on the world stage, including economic success, consideration of any warmongering and other avoidable scandals
I think election manifestos should be balanced against end of term outcomes.
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.
