YESTERDAY I asked my MP if I was entitled to any help from the Government.

He wrote back promptly (he usually does) informing me that the level; should I wish to claim, was £130 weekly.

I read recently that one MP was complaining that he was only getting paid the minimum wage for being an MP. Does he know what that is or does he care?

Their salaries are £65,000 a year which they say is not enough to live on.

Stuart Bell has called for almost £90,000 as salary.

On this planet there are two worlds; one for the poorer people and one for the bankers and MPs. and never the twain shall meet.

When will Joe Bloggs wake up? We are, as I have said repeatedly, the most servile nation in Europe, and we get the Government we deserve.

George Sankey, Chepstow
