Parliament must vote to end MPs' perks & allowances.

Rejected 12 signatures

What the petition asks

Parliament must vote to end this disparity between MPs' & their constituents. MP's receive substantial salaries & can claim non -means tested allowances & perks that their constituents could only dream of. Parliament must vote to end this disparity.
Fairness should be central, to our country's political system.
This is why MP's should vote to have their non means test perks and allowances ended by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) they are responsible for deciding on MPs' pay, perks & allowances. Although IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government. I see no reason why the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority, cannot carry out the democratic vote of Parliament.

Why it was rejected

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

The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for deciding on MPs' expenses and pay, not the UK Government or Parliament.

IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
