Ah but Paul he wouldn't be able to go within a 1 mile radius of the Houses of Parliament, as they have passed yet another repressive law banning the right to demonstrate in that area. This is because they were having their consciences slightly stirred by an anti-war protester in Parliament Square, who ironically is still there because they didn't frame the law properly, and he has been allowed by the courts to continue his protest, and good luck to him too.
The old saw about there being only two types of MPs, i.e. those who are lawyers and those who are not, rings hollow in the face of their ineptitude in drawing up new laws.
So they will continue to be embarassed by this brave man on their way to and from their 4 days a week job, with the 3 months a year holidays at this meagre wage. Actually it has gone up since that was published and is now nearly £60,000 + allowances, as they unlike most people get an annual increase, and it's usually above the inflation rate.
Most of them are pigs all eating from the trough of our taxes, and many of them also have another income on top of this generous salary.
So why with the joint income of a cabinet minister and a lawyer coming into a house which is mortgage free did Tessa Jowell's husband need to "borrow" money?
