Closed 131 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to abolish The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority pay settlement function and set MP pay at 160% of the 'National Living Wage'.
We feel that Politicians have too many privileges currently and we think this will make them a little more sensitive to poverty in Britain.
