If you hadn't heard yet, yesterday Grazia, together with Unite, took our equal pay campaign to Parliament - and in a landmark vote, 258 MPs voted in the legislation we've been calling to be implemented.

If Section 78 of the 2010 Equality Act, which was brought in under the Labour government, is implemented then companies of 250 employees or more would be required to publish the anonymised salaries of their workers - meaning any gender pay gap present could be actioned. But the fight is not over yet. The second reading of the Bill will be on February 27th, when a debate over the details - and whether the government will agree to officially implement it - will take place.

As part of our campaign, we asked you to write to your MPs - and we were astounded by your impassioned response; it really made a difference. Now, we've obtained the list of names of those MPs who voted, so you can check if yours supports equal pay. And so, if their name is not on this list, you can ask them why.
