MP second job rich list – Tories raking in up to £1.6m ON TOP of salary
Daily Mirror says The resignation of former Tory minister Owen Paterson has thrown the issue of MPs’ incomes into the spotlight.
Mr Paterson last week dramatically quit as North Shropshire MP after being accused of lobbying on behalf of Randox and Lynn’s Foods – who have together paid him more than £500,000 as a consultant.
He denies any wrongdoing – but says the “intolerable” pressure on his family meant he couldn’t continue in politics.
Many MPs have other income streams, making money from things like consultancy roles, book deals and speeches.
