Rejected petition Make politicians pay for their meals instead of milking UK tax payers

Why should politicians get free food? The average tax payer struggles to pay their bills each month, works extra hours & gets nothing for free, why should politicians be any different, it's just pure greed. Milking the system with expenses & freebies stop taking the pee out of us
