For all mps and civil servants to have to take compulsory drug tests

Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

All mp's and civil servants and people whom work in the parliamentary system to complete compulsory drug tests and be dismissed from office or their job role. If these people are putting in legislation then they should be accountable too and face the full force of the law.
With mp's finally admitting on public TV and within the press that they have taken drugs it is clear that they seem to see themselves above the laws that they are implementing. There has also been evidence of drugs found within toilets within the house of parliament which also highlights that there drugs being used by people whom use these areas.
