MEPs vote to keep world beating salaries and allowances
11th April 2011
Every level above the local becomes more and more isolated from its nominal constituency and hence more self-interested and corrupt. Pournelle’s Iron Law of Bureaucracy will triumph over every reality.
Conservative and Ukip MEPs voted for the cost-saving proposals but Labour and Liberal Democrat members either voted against or abstained.
My, what a surprise. Aren’t you surprised? I’m sure surprised.
