I still maintain a sensible amount is the average wage for the country, grifting cunts are serving the people and should know what that's like. I don't care if you're not attracting the "best of the best" with that system, you don't need someone who's amazing at politicking to do the job well, they're certainly not at the moment, they're backed up by people who should be paid well. MPs and ministers need compassion and a connection to who they serve and a desire to improve people's lives.
