Cashy, I agree. The latest info about Wayne Rooney getting 300K a month is eye watering...but his club must think he is worth that and there seems to be no shortage of people who want to go and watch him play. If folk were to stop going to see him play then I guess that he wouldn't be getting that amount of money(I wonder if he pays all his tax on that amount - or whether he has bamboozled the taxman into thinking he is a used car dealer making a loss) It is a supply and demand thing.
Whereas MP's they are about as useful as mammaries on a bull.

We will always have rich people....we will always have poor people. Communism was put forward to try and level things out but that doesn't work either......those with money have power. Those who don't, have precious little and that is why MP's take so little notice of them - they are insignificant.
