Rejected petition MP's Means Test for Salary and Expenses
More details
MP's should be Means Tested for their Salaries and Expenses, as Salaries were paid to encourage the working classes into politics if people have more money in assets and cash available than the average working class they should be paid on a scale that represents this, and have expenses that represent their actual wealth, if they can afford a second home should we pay for it?
