    Indeed for obeying the real law. Not the law the morality police want us to obey these days.

    I listened to a segment on 5Live this morning about this and spent the whole journey shouting at the radio - I'm sure other drivers thought I was a looney.

          Indeed - that way the scum at the top can keep avoiding tax whilst the journo's of the world can try and make the rest of us feel guilty for it.......

          I for one do not!

                I don't think those ARE amongst the reasons why; MPs probably account for like 0.001% of tax!

                It's not like they're paid on commission.

                      Rather than the long days, thankless constituents, constant travelling away from family, office politics and relatively low salary you mean?

                      Most get into politics for the right reasons - you have to slog away for years on no money before you can even get a shot at being an MP and clearly only the smallest minority ever get that far. Going into it for the money would be daft.
