Are they worth all this?

[sandyRoe]

That's a remarkably small car for a chap who, accord to the Mail, is rolling in money.

[jake-the-peg]

The Mail is cheating by adding up their salaries over all the time they've worked there

2.6 million *over 15 years*

[Duncer]

I wish the Mail would cheat me like that?

When you break down the figures into yearly ones, they really aren't great. She seems to have had a basic of about £50k. The Daily Mail would find similar figures for Conservative MEPs.

This comes as a great surprize to me. I can't help wondering whether these Champagne Socialists, sometimes, take their followers for gullible idiots.

[jake-the-peg]

I think the people taking their followers for gullible idiots are the Mail!

BTW - Not quite sure how Socialist and Neil Kinnock are meant to fit together - as I recall he was the one who kicked millitant out of the Labour Party and tried to replace clause IV (which committed the Labour party to nationalising things - rather the definition of socialism)

Why is this surprising it was over a long period of time, and why are we talking about an article which is 3 years old?

[Duncer]

Whjy are we talking about an abject failure among British politics.

[KerrAvon]

Those "socialists" like Kinnochio truly believe that socialism is the way.....for everyone else!

[youngmafbog]

True, do as I say not as I do eh Jake ?

[sp1814]

Seriously - why has a news story from 2009 cropped up here?

Perhaps I should go over to the Music section a post a question about a great new band I've heard of...

...Led Zepplin.

[KerrAvon]

Is that the lot that covered Rolf Harris's Stairway to heaven?

[Zeuhl]

No Kerr
