CHANGE RULES FOR ALL MP'S

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

Change the law on MP'S. If they have been sacked or resigned from a position then they leave being an MP for LIFE! No one wants recycled rubbish. If they can't do the job - get them out. No second, third or fourth chances. Be like any other employer - resigned or sacked - your OUT
As tax payers, we are tired of ineffective MP's who take up posts and don't do their jobs as promised. If it were any other employer, you would be out on your ear. You just recycle eachother based on who are in support of an MP. Therefore there is NO accountability placed on YOU which is not inline with any UK employer. Time for change

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure if you want new rules to be introduced in relation to standing as an MP, or being appointed a Government minister, or exactly what rules you want to be introduced.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
