"No wonder the country is in the state it's in if he has time to waste voicing his opinion about a football kit!! " I think it’s got precious little to do with football kit, he’ll be jumping on every bandwagon that makes him appear ‘connected’ from now to till the election. | |||

"Keir Starmer must not become Prime Minister at any cost or means" Surely he can't miss that open goal. I mean the "anyone but the fuckers who have driven the country off the edge of a cliff" who else is there? I never thought I'd look back at Blair and major and think they actually did ok. | |||

"Can't stand the bloke personally However anyone who can vote Tory after the performance they shown has got to need therapy Corruption upon corruption with a bit more corruption added to the corruption 40 new hospitals Extra nurses that are already employed VIP fast lanes Shipping contracts to company's with no ships And let's not forget they brought Austerity to pay off the national debt (that's us bailing out bankers) but still managed to make that debt bigger. WTF Who would vote for that " Lots of people. They are extremely well funded and run a slick campaign. They're supported by large sections of the media. They won the last few elections, I don't see why this one will be any different. | |||

"Both Labour and the Tories need a seriously big clear out of very awful politicians. Sadly, the inept clowns that currently sit on the benches of both sides will be replaced with more inept clowns." If we want better quality MPs we need to: A) Pay them more, a lot more, to make it a vocation/career rather than stepping stone or networking opportunity B) Not allow second jobs or overly generous expenses C) Require them to live in their constituency D) To have lived in their constituency for at least 2 years before being allowed to be a candidate E) Have specific MP accommodation (aparthotels with security) in central London for those not based in London (to stop home flipping on expenses) | |||

But the whole system needs a shake up. Specifically the way political parties are funded. For example that fella who donated £10 mil to the Tories. Or various CEOs and corporations donating millions. It creates a conflict of interest. We see it in policy making all the time. The government doesn't make decisions that are best for the country, they make decisions to keep the funds rolling in. This goes for every political party. | |||

Just happens that due to their character, they don't give half a shit about anything except lining their own pockets, and serving the needs of those who donate the most to the party.

"I agree but there are plenty of very smart and experienced people who simply wouldn’t consider being an MP because it doesn’t pay enough." "Who told you that." I'll tell you that. £86,584 is a good salary, but it comes with constant press intrusion, a spotlight on your personal life, long hours, lots of travelling, and having to be nice to the appalling voters.

And that's ignoring the fact these peeps probably wouldn't do it for that pay. While many people would say they'd do it for 90k, I'm not convinced those on 90k would. Or those on more would take a pay cut. I'm now wondering what uplift I'd want to make it worthwhile. Would I do it for double ? Make me an offer ! | |||

Then consider a Secretary of State/Minister’s pay or a Permanent Secretary in the Civil Service. They are running organisations with 000s of staff and budgets in the £billions. A comparatively powerful job in the commercial sector would pay significantly more. | |||
