This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition The bedroom tax should extend to cover MP's who claim 2nd home allowance but have more bedrooms than they need in the 2nd home
More details
As 'we are all in it together' it is only fair that the people who govern are subject to the same rules as the goverened. In the case of the bedroom tax we feel it would be hypocritical of MP's to claim 2nd home allowance if the home they are claiming on has more bedrooms than they need
The same rules that apply to people who will be affected by the bedroom tax should also be applied to MP's with no exceptions and the penalties must also be equal.
