        Nothing wrong with that at all, as it stands they don't get anything at all. Lots of things wrong with MPs but this isn't one of them.

        And MPs wonder why they are losing respect in this country. It's a part time job and most of the work done by their constituency employees

        Just MPs? Is that the ones who seem to have massive pay rises every year? But nurses, Police and the rest of the services get next to FA 😡

        If one is voted onto office, one has an obligation, not an entitlement.
