MPs to get big pay rise while other public sector workers fall behind Members of Parliament are to receive an inflation-smashing five per cent pay rise in April - after demanding that doctors, NHS staff and civil servants receive much less.

MPs get a five per cent pay rise. Other public sector workers get a real-terms CUT. They say it’s “independent”. Voters may call it something else.

If productivity is falling, why do MPs never feel the pinch? Whenever Westminster starts muttering about “lower productivity”, it is always ordinary people who are told to brace themselves.
