They should double or triple MP's pay. Then the job would attract the top talent rather than the bottom feeders that only got there because of Mummy and Daddy.

Dear my local MP
In light of having over ten thousand pounds forced upon you when you have declared you don't want it, I suggest you donate it to the treasury to help rebuild a country you have dismantled.
This kind act at a festive time may redress the increasing imbalance between rich and poor.
Merry Christmas

I thought it was disgusting that they should have a raise
Then I heard an old chap explain why he thought they should
That convinced me I was wrong
Can't be bothered to explain or find the piece tho

The problem is that if we don't pay our MPs well - then all we're going to get governing us are the wealthy.
Do you really want a parliament full of ex-public school boys like Cameron, Gideon, Clegg, Blair, etc. etc.? Yes, alright we have that now.
People who don't live in the real world - who've never had to worry about money - govern us. They don't understand the world the rest of us live in. We need to pay our MPs well - so we get the best people to govern us, to solve the problems that the country faces,

The pay should be increased but any secondary jobs not allowed while they are an MP. How can they be objective and neutral if they have outside interests.
I'd also make the parties publicly funded to some degree too - the current system is borderline corrupt. A party will simply look after the people funding it whether that's a trade union or a bank regardless of whether certain policies are best for the country or not.

I completely understand peoples comments about MPs getting well paid so we can attract the best people for the job.It's just the fact that they are the biggest bunch of talentless,charmless retarded,unthinking thoughtless,incompetent wankers on the planet that makes me begrudge givng them a fucking penny.

The bloke in the video is an utter twat, hes done loads of these and thinks hes some kind of freedom fighter, in reality he is just a gobby cockney wanker. Hes also one of galloways arse lickers which makes him an even bigger cunt.
As for the MPs and their 'we dont want this payrise and we are not responsible for it' bullshit, does anyone actually believe that?
Of the 8 people on this 'independant' panel, 5 of them are MPs.

It's a huge problem when it comes to law making in terms of either being: 1) created by a bunch of politicians elected to act in our best interests but are only acting in their own; or 2) delegated to a specialist group with the knowledge and expertise but as such, taken away from those meant to represent us and then people cry out about where our democracy is if non elected people are now making laws. Being a member of parliament, leading the country and creating new laws for the overall best of the country (which can often have other far reaching impacts) should be an extremely privileged role but instead, they are just cut so far off from actual society that they'll never know what its like to walk in 95% of peoples shoes. |

I fully agree that MPs should be paid more; What kind of poor person is going to get out of bed for £70,000 per year with all their expenses paid?!

He's actually interviewed numerous people, including Galloway. Not quite sure why people still deny what's right in front of them, happening daily, he speaks more truth than most. or would you prefer to be ruled by this current lot? |
