The Hansard Society reports that the average MP works 69 hours a week, where are you getting your "relaxed cushy sort of gig" from? Interested to know if it's based on evidence or assumption.
I don't know, but I would guess that MPs representing deprived constituencies run pretty busy surgeries. My experience is that people bring a whole host of problems directly to their MP, often as a first port of call.
I'm not particularly defending MPs, far from it, but you seem to be knocking them based on a whole heap of assumptions and stereotypes.
