Rejected petition Second homes for MP's

More details

Stop second home allowances for MP's supply fully furnished accomodation in the same way as the armed forces with the same quality, checks, and penalties if accomodation /furnishings are returned at the end of term in a poor state. If Mp's then wish to use their own furnishings and keep or let out their constituency home and pay tax on the income, that is their choice. If this could be done in connection with the armed forces on MoD ground this would also help in reducing security costs. Then give travel warrants the same as services personel for any necessary travel costs
