Petition Action

Link any MP’s pay rises to an average of those across the emergency services

Petition Details

Directly correspond any annual pay rises granted to members of parliament with that of the emergency services.
For example, add the pay rises granted across the police/fire and national health service and divide by 3.
Also do away with all subsidised bars and restaurants within the palaces.

Additional Information

Government continually interfere or fail to comply with supposed independent pay review bodies dealing with our emergency services.
Linking them to their own pay increases would go some way to restore the feeling that there is some measure of equality of treatment.

This petition was rejected

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. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
