After The Expenses Scandal Failing on Brexit will further damage trust in MPs

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The MPs Expenses scandal caused public confidence in MPs to sink to an all time low. MPs need to regain public confidence. Deceiving the public about the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement, refusing to publish the full legal advice and continual spin is not helping. All MPs need to be honest & transparent
