End subsidised food and alcohol in Parliament and the Lords

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

MP’s are on good enough money to not need the prices of food and alcohol to be subsidised for them, pay a fairer price to eat and drink

MP’s voted against helping the poorest children of society have free meals in the school holidays, so it’s only fair they pay a full price for their food/alcohol in Parliament
