Rejected petition Stop all MPs energy allowance

Following the cutting of the Winter Fuel allowance I believe that MPs Energy allowance should also be cut from the £3400 to ZERO as they don't meet any of the conditions applied to the pensioners

More details

The general public cover all costs for there Energy but MPs are allowed to claim upto £3400/annum whilst being salaried at £91,000. In line with the winter fuel allowance the MPs should have there £3400 allowance removed.
