what do we actually want from our mps?????
we want transparency and honesty nothing hidden
much better to remove most "expenses" and add them to the salary

BA, the government have forced 1% and sometimes 0% pay rises on public sector workers for the last few years. Apparently , if they had to vote on this proposed pay rise, 3/4 of all MP's would vote YES.
Perhaps if all expenses were removed, then an 11% rise might be acceptable. Did you know there are MP's claiming the full energy costs for heating and lighting their own homes? Bloody ridiculous.. I wonder what my employer would say if I presented him with my gas and electricity bills each year?
yes i do know they now get power bills paid under the present system after the 11% rise it will be the new systemwhat do we actually want from our mps?????

my suggestion that would be universally popular would be to halve the wage then only people the ones who wanted to do the job would be there
but then the ones that couldnt afford the traveling costs or extra accomodation costs if they live far away so preclude people without a second income something i think no standing mp should have as we should have there full undivided attention not just a bit off it
We have far too many MPs and Peers, we don't need 650 MP's, sack 50% of them to make up the money, USA is a bigger county with 435 elected members
Belgium managed ok without any government for over a year!!

When was that? And who decided how to run the country?
Not saying it's not possible, of course. In fact, what a good idea!
Incidentally, having occasionally watched Prime Minister's Question Time (accidentally, I might add!), I couldn't help but feel that all the shouting and jeering reminded me of a school playground.
You'd think that people considered suitable for running the country might be able to behave in a more adult fashion and at least let the speaker (not The Speaker - that midget's not worth listening to) say his/her piece without interruption.
