Reduce elected MPs pay to the equivalent of minimum wage for 48 hr week.
Reduce MPs expenses to a fixed sum of £5000 per annum with no variation permitted for any reason.
Expenses only to be paid if MPs are in their Westminster offices for a minimum period of 120 days per year.
It is time the elected representatives lived in the real world with the people they represent instead of being paid salaries and expenses at a level that divorces them from the electorate they are tasked with representing.
