No MP pay rise 2017

Petition Details

MPs will see their pay rise by 1.4%, taking them from earning £74,962 to £76,011.
This is more than public sector payrises that are capped at 1%.
Many of us struggle to make ends meet and an unknown Brexit effect has yet to take effect, our politicians feel this is acceptable. This cannot happen!
