Petition Action

URGENT REDUCTION OF The Number of MPs

Additional Information

This partition is about restoring faith in the British system of government, it is about service, before self and most importantly it is about leading by example.

Therefore I respectfully request that we reduce the number of members of parliament from 650 to 125 and save the UK tax payer approximately 31.5 million per year and also scrap pensions for MPs. (as we all know the job is for 4 years only)

The salary should also be capped and means tested, as in "if you are unemployed before being elected as an MP, then you total pay should equal your unemployment benefit and no more."
