MPs are set to receive a pay rise of up to £20,000. A survey released in January found politicians on average believed they should be paid £86,000 rather than £66,000, with some demanding more than £100,000.

However when quizzed why Ministers are set to recieve a pay rise when expenditure is being slashed in every other sector, unemployed are expected to live on less than £10 per day, and those in wheelchairs are being accused of, well, simply not trying hard enough, David Cameron was, unsurprisingly, unavailable for comment.
