Closed Remove special rights for City of London Remembrancer

Closed on

The Remembrancer is an ancient post answerable to the City that sits in the House of Commons. He has 6 lawyers, a budget of £5.3 million a year and the right to see every draft law before it’s passed. It is unacceptable that the City of London is given a special position in Parliament from which to lobby. We want the Remembrancer barred from the Chamber of the Commons, and their special rights removed.
