I write following the story “MP blasts £7K pay rise”.

I’m worried because for the first time I agree with Caroline Lucas!

It’s a joke how much MPs earn. You all earn too much, and whine on about the hours you do as there is a lot of us out there that do those hours and don’t get paid anything like what you get.

You’re not forced to do the job so any of you can walk away whenever you want. But for £74K a year plus your expenses, come on who’s going to say NO to that, oh except you.

I can feel the urge to get myself a bike coming on!

Well done Caroline.
