Rejected petition Abolish all subsidies for Restaurants within the Houses of Parliament

More details

Members of the House of Lords receive a daily allowance for attending the House of Lords. On top of this, the taxpayer is expected to subsidise the cost of eating within the Palace of Westminster.

In this time of austerity I call upon the Government to remove ALL subsidies for any restaurants in the Houses of Parliament.
