Rejected petition: The government needs to give up their pay rise & cost of living payment.
Rejected on
I want the Members of Parliament to give up the pay rise and cost of living crisis, they feel they deserve. When MP have no problem paying any bills that come their way. They know we’re in a cost of living crisis, and yet, give themselves a pay rise. Yet, can’t find the money to pay the bedroom tax.
Stop the pay rise & cost of living crisis. Undo the bedroom tax ans stop this madness of MP getting everything at a discount. To pay full price on items that everyone else would have to pay.

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) is responsible for setting MPs' pay. IPSA is independent of both Parliament and Government.
