We insist that all MPs take an immediate 50% pay cut until Brexit is delivered

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

17.4 million people voted for Brexit but parliament thinks it knows better, they are failing in their duty to the majority in this country.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
