MPs salaries
Just published today
MPs have earned £17.1m on top of their salaries in this parliament, with around two-thirds of the money going to just 20 MPs.
As part of Westminster Accounts, a joint project between Sky News and Tortoise Media to shine a light on how money works in politics, we found the majority of the extra earnings went to Tory politicians - a total of £15.2m - while Labour MPs earned an additional £1.2m.
All MPs are paid a base salary of £84,144.
as I have said before it’s an absolute disgrace and general public should not have to put up with it if you are elected as an MP then that’s your job
