Make all London mayoral election candidates publish their tax returns.

Rejected 11 signatures

What the petition asks

For complete transparency it should be a condition of the election for each candidate to publish their tax return in the run up to the mayoral election vote.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This isn't something that the Government or Parliament has the power to do.

If you would like Parliament to change the law to require this, you could start a petition asking for that.
