Sell Chequers, the country home of the Prime Minister

Closed 36 signatures

What the petition asks

I propose that the Prime Minister’s country home, Chequers, be sold to raise vital revenue for the country.
We believe this country is in desperate financial trouble. The NHS is on its knees, people can’t afford to heat their homes or feed their families and the train network is crumbling. Meanwhile the PM retains his country home, 40 miles from Downing Street. The value of this house and the cost of running it must run into many millions of pounds. Other venues, perhaps Buckingham Palace, could be used for functions that Chequers is used for.
