Alan Duncan, Tory Leader of the Commons, was secretly recorded saying the following:
“No-one whose done anything in the outside world, or who is capable of doing such a thing, will ever come into this place (Parliament) ever again the way we’re going.

“Basically it’s being nationalised, we have to live on rations and they treats us like s**t.”

He claimed the remarks were in jest - but he'd have to say that wouldn't he?

Poor old him, having to live on a 'basic' pay of £64,766 a year'
Once the public subsidy for their gold-plated pensions - worth £17,468 a year - is factored in, a backbencher actually earns £82,234 a year.

That is before the system of generous perks and allowances is added, which has seen the cost to the taxpayer of the average MP spiral to almost £250,000.

If that's what 'living on rations and being treated like sh*t' is - I'm first in the queue!!!!
