MPs should not have business interests

Pass a law to ensure MPs are 100% focussed on doing the job they are paid for and have no conflicts of interest in policy making arising from their personal business interests.

Why is this important?

If MPs have business interests then:
1. They may be compromised in making any policy decisions related to the industry in which they have personal interests.
2. They are paid full time to be an MP by the electorate but at present do not give 100% due to time committments for personal business interests.
3. As an example George Osborne when chancellor had multiple business interests which meant that physically it was just not possible for him to devote enough time to his role as an MP
