Those politicians
...who every year preside over council tax hikes, hikes in rail fares, hikes in fuel duty, allow the utility companies to hike their charges above inflation (OFWAT, OFGEN etc) and yet remain untouched by the corresponding fall in standards of living as a result have no place in public life.

Pay 'em £75k a year and put 'em up in a dorm whenever they're working in the capitol. They pay their own travel, energy and office expenses, just like the rest of us do.

Any that have milked the system should be chucked in the Tower.
