What the petition asks
I'm starting this petition to Garnish all wages from the PM to the Mp's to the house of lords, they have failed us as a nation,time we shook the tree, they have destroyed most of the british publics lives, and their spending is getting out of control, cap their wages, give it to the people.
They are spending money like it's water, they can no longer stand their and say they are doing a good or even half bad job, quite frankly, they have been allowed to do what they want when they want without any repercussions, that ends today, GARNISH THE PM's MP's and HOUSE OF LORDS WAGES, AND THEIR LIVING ALLOWANCES THAT THEY ALL SO KINDLY GIVE TO THEMSELVES, AND THE MONEY SHOULD GO TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE UNITED KINGDOM, THEIR WAGES SHOULD BE CAPPED, AND WE NEED TO STRT HAVING A VOICE ON WHERE (OUR) MONEY IS BEING SPENT.
Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
The UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for setting MPs' pay. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
