Stop subsidising MP’s alcoholic drinks
Rejected

What the petition asks
MP's alcoholic drinks served in Westminster bars and restaurants are subsidised by the tax payer. Why should the tax payer pay towards their alcoholics drinks when we are all feeling the bite from austerity.
The government reminds us that we are all in this together when it comes to cuts and austerity, yet in Westminster's Bars and licensed premises MP's alcoholic drinks are subsidised from public money, your money.
We think this is wrong and demand to stop subsidising alcoholic drinks for Westminster staff and MP's now.
