Interesting report in the Mirror on MP's Second Jobs
They are supposed to have jobs already. And a community to look after.
Top of the list is Farage - by far - followed closey by mostly all Tories (Blue) and Reform (Dark Green).
How much of these aren't bribes?

To understand the scale of it, since the July 2024 election he's earned roughly £100k more as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion than Starmer gets as PM.
