I wouldn't begrudge an MP that increase, mainly because I wouldn't want their job.

I'd give pretty much anyone a month doing that before they realise that there is no gravy train.

%32 does seem a tad high but i wouldnt put it past them if they thought they could get away with it but my main point is that even our homegrown MP cant answer a question straight and besides he could have answered with what you basically put and corrected the %32 issue but teh question was completely evaded.

seems to me the first lesson in politics is to talk so much crap the question gets lost or the person asking it gets fed up goes away
