Milking It.


 

Andrew Mitchel MP.

         Being an MP can be a very lucrative job, apart from the £81,000+ income plus expenses, you can knock that up quite a bit by offering your influence to companies large and small. A couple of instances of their nice little earners lets you see just how you can milk the label MP. The sums earned are difficult to imagine as an hourly rate. Take for example Andrew Mitchel, Conservative, this eager beaver manages to hold down six other jobs as well as being an MP, these jobs entail 34.5 days work and bring him in a nice little sum of more that £180,000. Is this hourly rate anywhere near what you earn in you day to day job? Then there is Julian Smith Conservative, he manages three more jobs on top of being an MP and for offering them 62-84 hours of his time he earns £144,000. Call it sleaze, or call it selfish greed, or what ever label you wish, it still adds up to milking your position as a supposed “public servant”. Of course these two are not alone, nor are the the biggest earners among our privileged political ballerinas. 

Julian Smith MP.

       Of course this is nothing new the whole parliamentary system stinks from top to bottom, has done for centuries. The Westminster Houses of Hypocrisy and Corruption have always been an old boys network for the pampered and the privileged. Its members see themselves as above the ordinary citizen, they live in a little bubble alien to you and I. Yet these are the people we allow to legislate how our lives will be run, we expect them to solve our problems, when they don’t even know what our problems are, our daily struggles and problems are alien to them. The greater their wealth the further they drift from our reality.
