Freeze Mp pay! Pay freezes should start with the highest earners
The government should start pay freezes with the highest earners: MPs!
How is it fair that they receive a pay rise, while the likes of teachers and police don't?
It's dispicable that people like Matt Hancock refuse to refuse a pay rise in the country's current financial climate.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
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.
You can find out more about IPSA here: www.theipsa.org.uk/about-us/
We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:
