Rejected petition Prosecute MPs that rent home and claim expenses for hotel accommodation.

MP's with London homes are renting them out whilst claiming expenses for hotel accommodation. 25 Conservatives, 14 Labour & 4 LibDems have been found doing it. There should be no loopholes in rules and if found out, they should be PROSECUTED. Not questioned by their peers!!!!

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

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 makes decisions relating to MP's expenses and is independent of both Parliament and Government.

If you would like to contact IPSA to suggest that it changes its rules, here’s how to contact them:

Complaints that MPs may have breached IPSA's rules are handled by an independent compliance officer. You can find out more about how complaints are handled here:
