Rejected petition Stop MP's free pensions
More details
Government are right that people should pay more toward public sector pensions. However, MP's should lead by example & start contributing towards their own pensions. It is disgraceful that they are telling everyone to increase contributions & they don't even pay anything towards their own. This also applies a lot of civil servants - start paying your own way!
