Greedy arsehole(s)!

Despite the fact that this guy has been reported to the police and asked to pay back a whack of expenses he thinks now is a good time to suggest that sixty thousand a year for a back bench MP isn't enough and that something in the region of eighty to one hundred thousand would be more appropriate. The gall of the man is quite impressive, its like he is saying "yes I am a greedy bastard and proud of it, baaa tis what it means to be British," while thumping his chest at same time no doubt.

Clearly wasn't enough for him, though by god his sons must have been some really good researchers £11,773 a year for an 18 hour week seems decent enough, no need for student loans in this family but they were so good they earned four ten grand bonuses for their work. The constituents of Old Bexley and Sidcup must think themselves really lucky. Travelling back from studying at Newcastle University at weekends all the way to London, now there is a work ethic to be proud of. Perhaps the bonuses were for travel expenses?

He complained that he earned more as the Chief Executive of the Cats Protection League, if I was high up the CPL I'd be rechecking the accounts, well as a cat lover I'm pleased to hear they can pay that kind of wage I just hope whoever has the job now is earning their keep and cat welfare up and down the country should be fine. Thing is if all you are concerned about is money then in my opinion you are likely to be a twat of an MP. In my view MP's earnings should be linked to the wage and or living standards of the average citizen and while £60k a year might pale in comparison to the chief exec post of a charity run to protect the nations moggies I wouldn't think it wouldn't leave you short, indeed when you add in the fact you can hire the whole family to run your office I daresay household income is not likely to be a concern.

This clown however much of a crook or poor scapegoat whatever view you happen to take is clearly wired to the moon.
