STOP SUBSIDIZED BARS AND RESTAURANTS IN WESTMINSTER
Stop subsidizing mp's alcohol intake.
Why is this important?
I believe the British taxpayer is fed up of funding mp's to the tune of around £4m per year to drink alcohol. I think it's completely indecent that ordinary people struggle to make ends meet and the need for food-banks grows week on week but yet there is money to subsidize the drinking habits of mps. I'd rather give that money to help people in dire need. We don't subsidize any other working person to drink so why should we fund mp's to? They get a large wage, they claim back expenses to the tune of over £100m, can't they buy themselves a drink out of that? Taxpayers subsidize the sale of alcohol in around a dozen bars on the Parliamentary estate to the tune of £4m a year, it's time we put our foot down and told them to buy their own booze. These Tories love cuts well lets see if they like this one. Sign this petition if you agree.
