Closed House MPs in the Olympic Village after the Olympics

Closed on

We the undersigned request that the Olympic Village be used to house MPs aftter the Olympic Games in London.

The second home allowance costs the UK taxpayer hundreds of thousands of pounds a year. This would be cut drastically if MPs stayed in homes within the Olympic Village when they are required to stay overnight. The high speed train would also provide quick and easy access from Central London to the Olympic site,
