Prevent MPs from claiming energy costs until the energy crisis is over.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Take significant action to manage the impact of energy price rises on ordinary people and particularly trouser who are economically and physically vulnerable such as the poor, the elderly and children.

Government has an obligation to protect the population of the UK. Failing to manage the energy crisis, as they currently are, will put millions at risk of poverty or death.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
