  • Make it like national service and press-gang a sizeable collection of random established professionals in relevant fields to make the decisions for a year or two each, shirley?

    I cant see any situation where the majority of people who actually want to be MPs aren't in it for their own benefit

  • press-gang a sizeable collection of random established professionals in relevant fields to make the decisions for a year or two each, shirley?

    Isn't this dispensing with elected democracy?

  • We can elect to chuck them out and ostracise them if they do a terrible job

  • Isn't this dispensing with elected democracy?

    Well, that's clearly not worked anyway.

  • I don't think that would prevent corruption though. The only way to stop MPs from doing corrupt things for their own benefit is to prevent them from earning money* before, during and for some time after their service.

    * or any kind of non-monetary benefit like a such as a holiday in St Vincent and the Grenadines

  • On top of all these suggestions it would be great if they were held accountable for some of this shit when they do it.

  • Let them earn as much as they want on the proviso that if they do anything illegal or generally shitty or just don’t actually do their job of being an mp they get ripped apart by wild dogs.
    Still no second home though, straight up piss take that one.

  • Squid games but with scandals resulting in death rather than a large doll with laser eyes. They can have all the second/third/fourth homes they want but the fall from grace and accountability is even tastier as a result.

  • Pay them £2M a year but they have to wear an explosive collar that detonates if they think impure thoughts? We could televise it.

  • best idea so far.

  • Oh look, military action against a powerless nation of brown people - who could have seen this coming in an election year?

    Odds on a Sunak photoshoot on an aircraft carrier before next weekend please...

  • Showing his support for 'our boys'

  • on an aircraft carrier

    As if he has a choice.

  • This, but also it's a shock collar, and members of the public can shock them when they behave like cunts.

    They need those for reality TV too.

  • Odds on a Sunak photoshoot on an aircraft carrier before next weekend please...

    With no aircraft on it

  • The cat clearly hates him. The mouse-faced cunt

    Been busy with the rattle can?

  • taking the piss while on the piss:

  • Not read the article. Please tell me that was £27k on one really nice bottle.

  • I'd much rather they were forced to drink 9k bottles of 2.99 gut rot.

  • Isn't it parliament not government?

    27 grand isn't a lot in the scheme of things and some of that will be investment wine as the parliamentary cellar is supposed to be self funding through investments and divestments.

    A bottle of petrus could be £4k

  • Thank fuck that someone had the presence of mind during COVID to make sure that the Houses of Parliament wine investment wasn’t negatively impacted, if it had been the Tax Payers Alliance would have been livid.

    I guess that with everything going on, not considering the optics is understandable

  • not considering the optics

    Why, how much did they spend on them?

  • It just seems a whine (lolz) over nothing.

    27k within year the countries annual spend, this will be a small aspect of someones job for ensuring stores are there for entertaining dignitaries.

    This is the press covering up for more Tory fuckups with a nothingburger. Again.

  • Exactly 😀

  • Hang on, didn't we all do that?
