Rejected petition Make all MPs publish their tax returns for the duration of their careers

Given the recent discovery from the Panama Papers, and the involvement of David Cameron, all members of parliament should publish their tax returns throughout their careers as MPs and as candidates.

More details

April 11th, 2012, David Cameron agreed to publish his tax returns. 4 years on and they still have yet to be published. After multiple statements from Downing Street, finally acknowledging that the PM was involved in his father's offshore firm, now is the time for the Prime Minister and all MPs to make their tax returns for the duration of their careers as MPs public, so they can be scrutinised and held to account.
