UK Members of Parliament will receive a pay rise of around £3,300 (approximately $4,300) from April after a decision by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA), which sets salaries independently of government and Parliament.
MPs' base salary will increase from £91,731 to £98,599 (around $121,100 to $130,200) from 1 April 2026. The 5 per cent rise is made up of a 3.5 per cent cost-of-living increase and a 1.5 per cent adjustment linked to benchmarking against comparable roles, based on public sector earnings data.
