MP's Earnings

[Ric.ror]

Where can I find a list of earnings for MP's Out of Parliment. I understand William Hague earned the most with George Galloway second?????

It is not very strong on figures but its called the Register of Interests.
You are right Hague did top the list but Galloway wasnt second (he was in the top ten though!)

MPS have to declare outside earnings in 'bands' - up to �5k and �5,001-10k, for example so the figures can be misleading in the Register. BUT if you look back through the papers published the day after publication of the Register, you'll get some more accurate figures (or better educated guesses, at least). I beleive the London Evening Standard listed the outside earnings of all London MPs and I would have expected the Manchester Evening News, Newcastle Journal, The Scotsma or Western Mail to have done the same.
