Want a long, healthy life? Become an MP

The key to a long healthy life is to do just a little work, have 3-4 months a year holiday, be paid a lot of money and have a financially secure retirement with a large inflation-protected pension. Basically – become an MP. MPs work at most three days a week. Most do so little that they have time for several extra jobs on the side. Though they bleat about only being paid around �65,000 a year, they all actually pocket over �150,000 by paying a family member to ‘work’ for them and from profits made on their expenses. Plus their extra jobs can easily give them��50,000 to �100,000 a year. Then their pension scheme is so generous that you or I would have to save more than �50,000 a year to get the same pension as an MP. And finally, many will be pushed up into the Lords where they can claim massive expenses without showing any receipts for the rest of their lives.

If you really want a long, trouble-free, life of leisure and luxury, the best way is to become an MP, or better still an MEP.
