1. Ban second jobs for Members of Parliament - 2,005 signatures
2. Travel ban on Ugandan MPs and clergy who supported Anti-Homosexuality Bill - 2,267 signatures
3. Ban wind farms on protected peat land in England - 3,182 signatures

I believe such jobs could adversely impact an MP's ability to make independent thoughts and actions toward his or her duties to his or her constituency, and instead I think the power of their office may be abused to further their own self-interest.
