Adjust all MP's wages to the minimum wage.
To ensure our Members of Parliament represent the vast majority of this country, we can adjust their massive pay packets to that of a wage which reflects true society.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The Government and Parliament don’t have the power to set MPs’ pay. That power was given by Parliament to the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) in 2010, so that after 2012 MPs no longer had control over their own pay.
If you would like to contact IPSA to make this suggestion, here’s how to contact them:
