You’re making yourself look like a bit of a Splotty now.

Not really. I think we're seeing a lot of hatred of pay for MPs yet there are others far more worthy of criticism - charity bosses on six figure salaries, diverting money from those who need it for example. I'd like to see MP salaries increased and the best talent attracted.

Can you think of a reason why people have a problem with politicians getting a pay rise?

85k a year, can anyone name a senior Championship player on less? Most Prem players earn more per week.
Well apart from the obvious difference that footballers get paid from private money and not public, do you not think MP's should be leading by example while millions of mugs get no pay rise, pay cuts or even lose their jobs due to their mismanagement?

Anyway, any MP who feels hard done by should just get a better job or "work harder" as the Home Secretary might say.

It would be quite entertaining to watch Jacob Rees Mogg playing against Millwall on a wet Tuesday night

Of course I can. I'm giving a personal opinion - I find it bizarre that people charged with running the country are paid far lower than other sectors with far less importance.

In my opinion, higher MP salaries could well lead to less outside work, attract a higher standard of MP etc.

Do you also find it bizarre there’s 16bn for the military but there wasn’t a few million for hungry kids ?

Not being funny anybody earning 85k doesn't need another job as well. I'd ban other work for MP's. If 85k ain't enough then fuck off and do something else. Can anybody really say the likes of Grayling, Rees Mogg. all the Tory landlords would be missed. These cunts have had a go at running things and fucked it up every time. The country is full of people that are good organisers that run small firms, charities, whatever for less than 85k. I'm sure they could run a government dept not just as well but even better than this shower.

And anyone working to represent tens of thousands of people in parliament should not have a spare second of time to work on anything else
