Rejected petition The Salary of Member's of Parliament should be the same as the National Average Salary
More details
The Salary of MPs should be reduced to the Average Salary in the UK, and there after, it should fluctuate with the average salary. This is so that the public feels that the MPs are in touch with the majority in the country, building trust between politicians and the public, and to give the MPs an extra motivation to get the economy moving.
