I should point out that basic councillors only get an "allowance" of about ?9k pa, although they get extra for every additional committee or whatever they sit on or other duties they undertake. In the interest of transparent government, it's probably all clearly set out in some obscure cornere of the LBL website.
Excuse me, nine grand ? I'm not eastern european !
This must be a mistake. I could get more money working in Sainsbury's.
Only those people who are so far up their own rear-end, so hyperinflated with their own ego and self importance would work as a counciler for that type of money. All I can say is any extra earnings (Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more) that could be part of the job must be very, very good indeed !!
Would I get more money for being an honest counciler ? Revealing any skeletons in the closet first, before the 'FH Bugle' trys to expose me ?
Or is my political career over before it's even started ???
