Rejected petition Say No To Politician Wage Increase!

More details

The vast majority of MPs believe they are underpaid and want their salaries hiked by more than £20,000, a new survey has revealed.

It revealed that 69% of those questioned want more money and that, on average, they believe they should receive £86,250 every year.

This is a 32% increase on their current salary of £65,738 and more than three times the average salary in the UK

All this whilst telling everyone else they have to cut jobs, funding and benefits as a process of austerity.

Say NO to this, it is simply not "fair" to use Nick Cleggs own words !
