Rejected petition Remove MP millionaires from parliament.

Currently 75% of 'Government Cabinet Ministers' - within parliament are Millionaires. This is disproportionate representation. The tax and banking laws are made by theses people that allow the use of loopholes they created. The inland Revenue estimates £34 billion a year remains uncollected.

More details

MP's and Lords as lawmakers have an obligation to ensure those who are responsible are not untouchable, as is the case now where the individuals responsible are protected by the regulatory inadequacy of our current system, the system established by the majority wealthy MP's and Lords. Trillions are know to be hidden in the offshore banking systems. Closing down the tax loopholes exploited by multinationals and the super-rich to avoid paying their fair share will reduce the deficit.
