Freeze politicians pay this year
Lead by example and ensure that they are not given pay increases. Insist that the body that decides on their pay increases know that they will reject any increments for the unity and benefit of the country.
Given the current financial crisis and that other public sector workers are likely to incur a pay freeze, politicians should lead the way and ensure the same applies to them. People will be looking to parliamentarians to practice what they preach

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.

IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government and MPs' pay is automatically adjusted in line with IPSA's recommendations.
