    my MP, seems quite happy to take his tax payer paid salary and still earn near £1.000.000 via his legal work.
    One wonders how he finds the time as he's supposed to be a full time MP

    Apparently, it's important for them to have outside jobs and interests as it keeps them in touch with the real world.😂

    I could find lots of ways for them to keep in touch with the real world ... the list would stretch from here to his Chambers if not to his constituency 😡

    Career politicians know nothing else. I believe it's best if they've had other employment in the past but not while they're working as MPs. Running the country into the ground is surely a full-time job.

    I sometimes wonder how much damage some of them could do if they really applied themselves to it 😱

    @Hostafan1 ouch!!! Probably an overwintering queen ... put an ice bag or bag of frozen peas on it. Have you got antihistamine?
