Rejected petition Change the law to make it a requirement for anybody receiving an EU pension to surrender it on election to a seat in the House of Commons.

More details

Nick Clegg, last night, gave the best example of an ex MEP on an EU pension which will be cancelled if the individual stops supporting or bad mouths the EU. Nick Clegg demonstrated that he has no conviction to the welfare of this country nor his people but will go to the wall (as he has now done) in this country to ensure he keeps his EU pension. That option MUST be removed if we are to get people who have an interest in us, and NOT the abomination that is the EU.
