My 10 rules for politicians in parliament....

If you read my blog yesterday you will know that I said I would draw up some rules for politicians who hope to be elected for government in the elections that will take place sometime this year. I have listed them below!
1 - Politicians will not be paid more than the average national wage which is said to be about £25,000 per. year and in order to earn this they must attend parliament EVERY day except weekends when they can return home.
2 - Holiday entitlement is a maximum of three weeks in the school summer holidays plus all public holidays and bank holidays.
3 - Politicians will have to achieve targets in line with other administrative workers and have a six monthly appraisal. Anyone who slips below standard will be fired immediately.
4 - While serving in parliament, all members will live in the flats and bedsits provided as they will no longer be able to claim for a 'second' home. Rents for these flats and bedsits will be in line with what the general public pay.
5 - If required to travel either abroad or to any part of the country on business, all tavel will be by the cheapest mode of transport and overnight stays will be allowed in B & B only.
6 - No other expenses, apart from those mentioned above can be claimed.
7 - Anyone sitting in parliament, either house, must be resident and a full tax paying citizen with a British passport.
8 - Any member who makes rude or detrimental comments about any other member will be made to sit on the naughty step as will anyone who interupts or shouts out without putting their hand up when they want to speak.
9 - When asked to give and interview on the radio or television, members must answer the questions put to them by the interviewer and not ramble on.
10 - Politicians MUST NOT tell porkies! Anyone found being economical with the truth will be put in stocks outside the parliament building so that members of the public can throw rotten fruit and vegetables and whatever else they like.
