Title: Snouts in the trough.....
Post by: Sir Tigger KC on 14 May 2013, 21:41:24

No not our lot this time, but news from Kenya that MP's there are demanding a pay rise that will take their salary to £6540 per month and this in a country where the average annual salary is about £1100!!  :o

To put this into perspective, British MP's earn a basic salary of £5478 per month (approx), although I think that the average British salary is fast approaching that of Kenya...  ::)  ;D

Protesters released a pig and a dozen piglets outside the gates of Parliament in Nairobi and fed them blood...  8)
