Suspend the salaries of Northern Ireland MLAs.
People of Northern Ireland, are sick, sore and tired of our politicians and their continued impasse while only we suffer. The only option is devolution and shared government. The only way to force this is to suspend the salaries of all MLAs until such a time as they return to a functioning assembly.
We do not believe direct rule from London is a valid option due to there being no nationalist representation in Westminster and the DUP's deal with the Tory government which leads to obvious conflicts of interest.
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 salaries of MLAs are the responsibility of the Northern Ireland Assembly, not the UK Government or Parliament. Salaries are determined by the Independent Financial Review Panel. You can find out more about the IFRP here:
