MP's should take a pay cut to help the economy.
Lockdown was completed far too late which resulted in many NHS worker death due to poor organisation and lack of PPE supplied. MP's should take a pay cut allowing others to have a pay rise who have been at the front line during the corona pandemic.
The public would like to see MP's take a pay cut as nurses are not eligible for a pay rise even though they have been on the front line during the corona pandemic. Subsequently poor PPE has been provided which resulted in many NHS worker deaths.
