Ken, while you would not want to do the job of an MP, it seems(looking from the outside) that this career is quite lucrative.........and I know that to do the job properly you have to divide your time between your constituency and the Palace of Westminster, but you don't see raggedy MP's out looking for the best bargains in food, because they have an expense account to pay for it...which other job allows you to eat at the expense of the customer.......or have a roof over your head at the expense of the customer.
They all seem to be able to travel by train(something that some of us cannot afford to do)without it breaking their bank........and all the while they are an MP they have an eye on what they will do once that lucrative career is over...they network........heck some of them even moonlight while they are MP's.
My heart bleeds purple pee for the poor(and I mean that in financial terms) souls.
