Check that MPs’ declarations of financial interests are full and accurate

Check that MPs’ declarations of financial interests are full and accurate — 132 signatures. Status: closed.

Petition background

Check for financial discrepancies in every MP’s submissions to the Register of Financial Interests. This should happen as the self-declaration of interests that is currently being used seems to fail on far too many occasions.

Additional details

Some politicians in this country seem to end up as millionaires while in office, with the amount they earn this should be a rare occurrence. While it is possible within the existing rules, submissions should be checked for undisclosed earnings, sponsorship to lobby for certain causes and shares.
