Background

We think accepting paid work from overseas entities when serving as a member of the House of Commons should be banned.

Additional details

When political parties accept foreign funding, and when politicians accept compensation from overseas employers, we believe that at best, their loyalties are split. Money already has an outsize impact on politics, and we think this is a small step in redressing the balance.
