From the BBC today Deep Joy
MPs will get a pay rise of 5.5% from April, lifting their annual salary to £91,346, Parliament's pay and expenses watchdog has announced.
The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) said the decision was in line with the award recently agreed for senior civil servants.
The Consumer Prices Index inflation rate stood at 4% in January.
Last year, Ipsa said a 2.9% increase took account of an "extremely difficult" economic backdrop.
Announcing the latest pay award, Richard Lloyd, chair of Ipsa, emphasised that the independent body's aimed to make decisions on pay that were "fair... both for MPs and the public".
MPs' pay will increase by 2.9% in April
MPs' severance pay to double at next election
Defeated MPs set to share £2m payout.

This is probably out of character for me, but I'm sure I wont be alone on this one, although MPs salaries don't represent value for money, compared to this it's bird feed ...
What is the highest salary in the NHS?
How top NHS consultants earn 10% more than Rishi Sunak - by ...
The best-paid NHS consultant takes home nearly £500,000 a year, figures reveal. One unidentified senior doctor, who works in the Midlands, pocketed £489,500 in 2020, according to NHS data. Two other top-paid medics, based in the Midlands and London, earned £386,000 and £385,500 respectively.

I bet some local authority leaders get paid more than the PM.
Don’t see a problem with paying our MPs and government more (£200,000+?).
That way ALL other income can be outlawed and illegal (no need for hearings — just sack them with no pension if they flout that restriction) so that MPs and ministers can concentrate 100% of their time on what they’ve been elected to do…

People are on benefits need to join the NHS as doctors and nurses as we have a shortage and we can't afford dole for layabouts. |

Well we know abacus got to her dizzy heights by playing the poor me 'victim' race card, because she's thick as pig shit, the likes of her pick jobs that they know the woke are frightened of being accused of being racist, Lenny Henry did the same, another talentless race card victim.
As for Rayner well she got to her dizzy heights by 'charming' the men who have influence, she often looks flushed ....  |

For someone who is "thick as pigshit" she got into Grammar School and then got a History degree from Cambridge University. Are you sure you're talking about the right person? Methinks you're just making pigshit up again. 🙄 |

Starting off on the wrong foot! Labour's Diane Abbott is so keen to cast her vote she appears to have rushed out wearing MISMATCHING shoes
Ms Abbott appeared to be wearing two left shoes from separate pairs of loafers
She turned out to support Labour colleague Meg Hillier in Hackney South
But Twitter users quickly spotted something was up in snap posted online
