Members of parliament voting in favour of lockdown give up 20% of their wages.
Join in with the suffering of the millions affected by their decisions. A gesture of unity with the nation. In line with the 80% furlough scheme. Those who voted in favour should receive only 80% of their wage with the additional 20% helping those in need.
It is clear they have lost the trust of the majority of the nation. A step like this would show some compassion and willing to help the country. We are seeing a huge increase in suicide rates, mental health break downs and debt. Let us see these politicians also working with the country who are expected to just follow their choices blindly.
