Have you just realised this about our esteemed Members of Parliament Steed?

One of their biggest expenses claims is for an MP's secretary. I don't know the exact figures, but they get around £25,000 pa to hire a secretary. A lot of wise MP's of course hire their spouses!

Well yes but this has taken the cake.

This proves they don't care and what will the cost to the tax payer next year. Greed power and corruption go hand in hand with a nice sum of big money.

And a fabulous pension to top it all.

Are don't forget they must serve two terms granted there can be a big gap between there first and second. As you say once they been reelected what a nice fat pension they get, I forget now is it £60,000 a year?

Not sure of the actual figures, but you can guarantee it will be a darn sight more than most people get.
