We pay them 80k+ a year to run our country and they can't answer for their crimes? Something terribly wrong with that...

@rubbercable Agreed, they also get food, transport, housing, backhanders and other expenses. It's about time the British public grew a backbone.

@RevJones48 Agreed, I've seen Jellyfish with a stronger backbone than the British public. Action needs to be taken.

@jjefferyworboys8138 Stop the blatant lying. "MPs can claim for rent or hotel accommodation as well as expenses for a second home if they are not already receiving rent-free London accommodation through any ministerial post, and provided that their constituency is outside London."

@kanedNunable The basic annual salary of a Member of Parliament (MP) in the House of Commons is £84,144, as of April 2022. Boris gets nearly 160k for being PM.

@acthompson9983 I'm not defending Labour as Starmer is a corporate puppet. But I can name at least 8 Tory MPs currently under investigation for sexual offences...

@jjefferyworboys8138 Sorry but I try not to interact with political illiterates who defend corruption and lies. Boris is on 160k and makes many times that amount from selling his services to the highest bidder. As for crimes, they received fines for breaking the law, we call that a crime. Also breaking international law, human rights and contempt of parliament. Not to mention being told their policies have broken the law from the British legal system...

@PraetorUA 84k is basic the PM is on 160k. They also get expenses for food, transport, rent etc not to mention backhanders and insider trading... Take it down to 20k a year and see how many of them quit...
