MPs have no role outside Politics

We would like all UK MPs & MEPs from March 20th 2015 to have no position of interest financial or occupational external to their post as a politician, this for the duration of term in office at UK or EU parliament.

Why is this important?

The importance is that it would rule out conflict of interest by MPs and MEPs and make sure that all MPs and MEPs are fully serving the greater good of the UK Population.
