All Parliamentry pay rises to be voted on and ageed by the public

Petition Details

Members of Parliament are employed work for the people yet give themselves large pay rises without the agreement of the people and therefore their employers and this under employment law is unacceptable so must be voted on and agreed by the people.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. MPs are not able to give themselves pay rises, so we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Parliament and Government to abolish IPSA and introduce a referendum system, if that's what you'd like to happen.
