What the petition asks

This country needs a Non Bias, Independent Committee that all complaints about the PM and MPs can be sent to and investigated.

Be it Misconduct in public office, a breach of the PM ministerial code of practice or just a general complaint about the way they dealt with a constituent
Currently u contact PM for a breach of the ministerial code of practice or speak with the Parliamentary standards committee. currently who deals with what complaint the public don't really know.

A independent committee especially for breaches of the ministerial code of practice and Misconduct in Public office would make it easier and fairer and give the public more trust that the investigations are being carried out fully with no bias and not being swept under the carpet
