Letter: Looking forward to MPs' pay cut
11:07am Friday 27th April 2012 in Readers' letters
Owing to the imminent attack on wages of public sector workers in deprived areas, I take it that all Tory and LibDem MPs will be in line for a wage cut of the same percentage as the public sector workers they represent?
After all, what is an MP but a glorified public sector worker?
I might add that respect must be earned – it does not come with the title.
But never mind, ay, we’re in it together.
R Ormerod, Lower Darwen.

As do ALL failed PMs.
In the Banking Sector -
After wrecking Merrill Lynch's fortunes in the sub-prime mortgage market, its boss Stan O'Neal resigned, but picked up $160m on his way out.
Yes, Mr Ormerod, the world has gone mad !
