Reduce the pay Members of Parliament in solidarity with the rest of the country.
Members of Parliament need to stand with the people of Britain and prove they are not as corrupt as the rest of the wold think they are. Many people are being made redundant will MPs make thousands for doing virtually nothing.
The government should cap the pay for the MPs and issue no more pay rises for the next 5 years.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for setting MPs' pay. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
