MPs call for '32% salary increase'

[BDG]

They are not calling for a 32% pay rise - more that they were asked how much they thought their role was worth. It is actually lower than a lower role in the public sector and private sector.

Ask you local council how much the finance director or IT director is on. I will bet it is more than £90K for a nothing position.

MP's should not get paid, they should do it for the love with expenses. If they are any good as an MP, they can get a couple of no executive directorships offered to them, either when they are in parliament or afterwards.

I would do 10 years in parliament for nothing as long as I had a rosy future on a board afterwards.
