MPs and Civil Servants pay cut by 20% in a show of solidarity #inthistogether

Petition Details

In line with the private sector, we propose an immediate 20% pay cut for all MPs & Civil Servants for the period of at least three months. This cut is to be reviewed after three months with the possibility to extend a further 3 months.

Additional Information

In the face of this crisis, we believe that Parliament should unite with the general public and offer support in this fight. The money saved to the tax payer will help fund the economic losses and damage we see to public services.
