Rejected petition Restrict and cap political party donations to people on the electoral role.

To minimise any undue influence by an individual, there should also be a cap on the amount any one person can donate. A limit of £10,000 per year is suggested.

'Parliament is there to represent our interests and make sure they are taken into account by the Government.' (From parliament.uk)

To help restrict outside influences on parliament, donations should be restricted to the people served by parliament, i.e. the voters.
