Thank you.
Don’t forget MPs get a food allowance, travel expenses and a subsidised bar, as well as their basic wages. Of course, some have taken the mickey claiming for a duck house, heating for their stables, and even for a poppy to wear in November. Their expenses claims can be more than their actual wages per annum.
When was the expenses scandal, 14 or 5 years ago? Not sure things are the same now. Also wasn't it that very scandal that led to the creation of the independent body that now awards the pay rises?
