Comment on Members of public to be selected for ‘honest conversation’ about MPs’ pay

MP pay is such a red herring.

Yes, their pay is a lot compared to, say, minimum wage, but a low MP pay even further encourages only wealthy people to become MPs.

I’d much rather see MP salary significantly increased, but expenses capped and put under a much greater level of scrutiny.
