They get Allowance and expenses.

]....Each Member (Councillor) receives a Basic Allowance. The Scheme also includes Special Responsibility Allowances paid for particular duties. Travel, subsistence, dependent carers' and co-optees' allowances are paid for undertaking “approved duties” specified in the Scheme.

Try applying for a mortgage or a loan on those allowances.

Hell no. I'd never consider having a mortgage again.

 

But I don't think a getting a mortgage is really something that most councillors have to worry about.

"If I were Tory high command I would say there are a number of seats here that we probably aren't going to win but that Labour probably is going to win.

 

 

"If we gave you [ukip] a run in those seats the you would leave us alone in a lot of other seats that don't have those socio economics. I'm thinking the more middle class areas such as Dorset and equally suburban seats."

 

 

What Farage is saying here is that he doesn't believe that voters should have the choice or chance of voting the way they might want,ie,Conservative....................some power for him is far more important than that.

so farage (the man of the people) wants to up mps wages by almost 50% if we leave Europe Oo

 

And whats wrong with that? As most of the work is no longer done by our MP's they should now be having a reduction.However if we leave the EU then the work load will go up.

If Nige gets us out of the EU,then he will be worth every penny as far as im concerned.
