Link future pay awards to members of parliament to public service workers.
Year after year MP's have voted to accept pay awards greater than those they impose on low paid public service workers. It is time this was stopped and the playing field levelled. It implies that MP's are a law unto themselves and they are the privileged elite.
To show that after 10 years of austerity they wont take pay rises far in excess of those they award low paid public service workers.
