[BNM] [OT] Who's MP is the most expensive?

[tomdussek at hotmail.com]

(Dons waders....)

So, you revolutionaries who are also beneficiaries of free education 
that talks quite a lot about heroes like the Tollpuddle Martyrs, Nye 
Bevan et al (rather than educating us 'not to question'), a social 
security system that does its best to catch you when you fall, a police 
force that generally keeps you safe*, bin collection, lit streets, safe 
and plentiful food, and lots of general Good Things that you get from 
being lucky enough to not have been born somewhere less fortunate, what 
and how do you suggest we change? I do hope you all voted at the 
European election. What's your view on PR - would that help or hinder? 
Basically, before you make bizarre comparisons with a theocracy that is 
accused of vote rigging, what are your real, thought out, proper 
proposals? Or is it just Che t-shirts and banners reading "We're everso 
cross, because The Telegraph has told us to be"?
