Freeze all MP’s pay until they have agreed on a Brexit plan.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

The country are ‘on hold’ until MPs agree on a plan, acceptable to the EU, to leave Brexit. With three main viewpoints, Hard Brexit, Teresa May’s plan, and Remain, there is no majority in the Commons. Some MPs are voting against options for political reasons, and need to stop playing games.
MPs need to honour their constituents and the UK, and enable the country to move forward.
