Ban MPs from having second jobs except in NHS
MPs should not have other jobs outside of Parliament unless they are qualified doctors, nurses or other healthcare professionals and actively work in the NHS
Parliament should ban any sitting MPs from having second jobs as we feel it is a conflict of interest.
The only exception to this rule are if the MPs are qualified doctors, nurses or other healthcare professionals who actively work within the NHS.
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.
