Background

Vote on limiting the provision of fuel allowances for MPs to those not in receipt of outside incomes or donations (eg 2nd Incomes, Union Donations, 3rd Party donations).

Additional details

The Government felt fit to restrict Pensioners Winter Fuel Allowance to those in receipt of Pension Credit Disenfranchising 10M Pensioners when the could have just restricted WFA to pensioners not paying higher rate tax. It is only fair and equitable that MPs face and equivalent financial test.
