Rejected petition Peers and MPs should publicly declare all interests, monies, received from EU

Any Peers or MPs who receive funding of any kind from the European Union should not be aloud to vote on any Brexit decision as they have a conflict of interest and would be biased with their vote.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

The House of Commons has a Code of Conduct for MPs. MPs are already required to register and declare financial interests, and to avoid conflicts of interest, so we're not sure exactly what further action you'd like to see.

You can find the Code of Conduct for the House of Commons here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
