Rejected petition Electoral Electoral candidates must submit an extraordinarily detailed CV to the public when entering elections.

More details

All British electoral candidates must submit an extraordinarily detailed CV detailing education history, employment history as well as any other pertinent information to the public when entering an election.

This is so the public who are employing Ministers can make an informed choice about the person that they are employing, as all other employers currently do. Details such as schools and universities attended, what courses taken, grades received, sectors worked in, detailed responsibilities and achievements within these roles and all other additional public and private activities they have conducted. This would be all for the detailed scrutiny of their potential employer.
