Rejected petition Keep MP's pay in line with the public sector

More details

How dare MPs feel that they are entitled to 32% pay increase, final salary pensions and other perks when other public servants have had their pay frozen and their pensions raided? Please sign this petition to show MPs how their pay should mirror those of other professions by being related to performance, capped and lacking in a final salary pension. Alternatively they can raise the pay of teachers, nurses, the police and armed forces!
