We the undersigned ask The Green Party to demonstrate their commitment to cleaning up parliament in the wake of the recent expenses scandal by forcing the deselection of Caroline Lucas MEP and parliamentary candidate for Brighton Pavilion, as a result of her excessive expenses claims of over £300, 000 per annum. As an MEP, she is entitled to receive Allowances from the EU of well over a quarter of a million pounds a year and yet, in 2009, she published just three invoices totalling £3,059.71. This is neither efficient nor transparent. We expect that Green Party members will respond accordingly, and swiftly.

The volume of support has now reached a point that forces the Green Party leadership to address our specific demands for transparency. I have drafted a formal letter to the party executive requesting a meeting to discuss these expenses claims directly.

Get her out. Politicians are all the same greedy bunch in the end no matter what color they wear.

300k is absolutely ridiculous. how does she justify that while acting all high and mighty about sustainability? transparency goes both ways.

i work full time for way less than that. how can anyone think claiming that much is okay? she has zero respect for the tax payers.
