Under Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority’s proposal, a backbench MP’s wage would rise from £91,346 to just under £94,000

MPs should receive a £2,500 pay rise for the next financial year, an increase of 2.8%, the body that recommends their salaries has said.

If the pay rise proposed by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) goes through, it would raise a backbench MP’s salary from £91,346 to just under £94,000.
