Rejected petition MPs elected at the next election should not be able to have directorships or links to any companies and being an MP should be their sole employment

More details

MPs are elected to serve the people.

Currently MPs have too many outside interests and are easily influenced by big business and banks etc .... policies created reflect this.

We, the people, want changes in that MPs from the next election should not have any outside while performing the role of MP and should concentrate on being an MP.

This petition was rejected
