Would you like a £47,000 pay rise?

Originally posted by antonius: I can't stand the arrogance of these people - not to give too much away, but I will be voting for Portillo (no flames ). To be fair this wasn't a pay rise, but just taking his actual salary. The analogy is more like get given a pay rise, 4 years later actually take it. Also I think it's extremely underpaid, considering the amount he could earn, even as an arrogant hypocrite (advertising exec..?) and still less than his wife. Also, it's hardly a lot in the grand scale of things. Still, this time in 5 years when I'm part of the European Republic and obeying nightly curfew, whilst visiting only authorised web sites I'll say I told you so.

Ah ha but beware, just in case we do get a referendum on the curfew...watch how they phrase the question!
