Full-time politicians
I AM surprised that many MPs are unhappy with the salary they receive and find it necessary to take on extra work to supplement it.
They all knew how much the pay was when initially standing for Parliament and could always have applied to do something completely different instead.
Perhaps it is now time to have full-time politicians who don’t take second jobs.
