£80k is still very high in many industries.
I can’t even fathom what we can spend that much money on.

Tesla lease payments, a flashy watch and school fees.

Yup, just looked at some numbers. Leasing a new Tesla and having two kids in a half decent London private school will cost you about £80k per year (taking normal income tax into account).

A fair chunk of that will go in tax but it would also let one half of a couple do something that isn’t work (although of course they will ‘work’ in the MP’s office).
And then as @Stonehedge says, all the luxury trappings of the golf-clubist have to be paid for.

A house is enough, right? Pretty easy to soak up most of your post-tax income on mortgage payments

Competent administrators aren’t earning multiples of the UK average salary. If you’re talking more about departmental leadership, £80k is still very high in many industries.
