Petition Significantly reduce the number of MP's and the cost of Central Government

More details

The number of MP's makes central government a massive drain on the public purse, an unreasonable burden to current and future tax payers and is grossly inefficient.

Through a root and branch change to the electoral system the number of MP's should be reduced to 100 maximum.
