Bar non-domiciled UK residents from standing for election as MPs

Closed 42 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to stop UK residents who have non-domiciled status from standing for election as an MP.
Those with non-domicile status do not pay UK taxes on money earned abroad. As MPs are well paid, we do not believe they should be able to benefit from non-domiciled status.
