Reform MP pay, enforce mandatory attendance & link remuneration to performance

Reform MP pay, enforce mandatory attendance & link remuneration to performance — 21 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

Reset Member of Parliament basic salaries to the UK median full-time wage, enforce mandatory parliamentary attendance tracking with pay docking for unexcused absences, ban outside second jobs, and introduce strict, independently audited expense caps.

Additional details

Citizens face DWP sanctions for missing single appointments, while MPs get £98,599 (over 2.5x the £39,039 UK median wage) with zero mandatory attendance checks or performance metrics. Parliament must enact 5 reforms: * Reset base pay to the median wage (£39,039) + performance bonuses. * Mandatory clock-in; dock pay for unexcused absences. * Impose strict, audited expense caps. * Ban corporate second jobs and directorships. * Publish public MP performance dashboards.
