Debate Mr Ian Duncan-Smith lead by example and live on £7 per day
That Mr Duncan-Smith be the first of Her Majesties Government to show exactly how this can be done on a day to day basis, for 1 month, including the costs of Food, accommodation, clothing, travel and every other normal expense that one of these families or individuals may have to cope with.
The well publicised statements of Mr Duncan-Smith in the Media that he is able to live on the £53 per week and then £7 per day.
General reference to these media publications are on record.

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. IPSA conducted a public consultation after 2012 and decided what the salaries of MPs should be after the election.
If you would like to contact IPSA about its decision, here’s how to contact them:
