Here's another view point.
Politicians earn £60,675 a year (taken from spectator.co.uk in 2008). Gordon Brown, in the 2009/2010 year, only attended parliament for 492 sessions out of the 3352!! 14.7% attendance, and took home in the region of £188,000!!!
Personally, if you want to erase some of these debts, Members of Parliament should be made to pay back the money they STOLE from the taxpayers, and they should all take a pay cut to a figure that is reasonable!
HOW CAN ANYONE NEED EXPENSES COVERED WHEN THEY ARE EARNING £60k A YEAR!!!
Also, the head of my local council earns over £100,000! I couldn't even tell you who she is, let alone what she does!!!
