Sarah Champion is a British Labour Party politician and member of parliament for Rotherham. Since joining Parliament in 2012 Champion has ‘rapidly gained a reputation as one of Labour’s hardest-working backbench MPs’ according to The Independent. [1]

Lobbying for MP’s to have Formal job Descriptions

Champion is believed to currently be lobbying for MPs to be given formal job descriptions and potentially even contracts when they are elected, which would tell them how many hours they would be expected to work and what their minimum commitments should be. She says that it’s 'just not right' that all MPs draw the same salary and yet some can get away with doing very little constituency work. [1]
