I doubt he needs the dosh but one can never have enough apprently, but the real reason i suspect is so there's another part of the mainstream media on the 'right' side for the coming Brexit masquerade.

One law for them, another one for the rest of us. I am not surprised, he treated the country with contempt when he was Chancellor and he is just continuing.

Anyone can have more than one job - no laws involved.

Being an M.P should be a full time job. Most of us on the forum had / have a full time job for much less pay. I'm fairly sure most of us would not have had the time to take on anything else.

If he is able to do all of his jobs then the remuneration is disproportionate.

Please don't think i hold a candle for either Lucifer Blair or the poor sap he left holding the baby, Brown.

Osborne and his utterly pointless principle-less chum Cameron, managed to raise the national debt by more in their first term, than the previous twerps managed in three, so each and every one should be facing charges for what thay have done to our country, and each regime managed to follow trendy fashion and have their very own wars of utter mindless stupidity, there are not words to describe my contempt for the lot of them, fire and urinating might cover it.

However the real fault lies with the electorate, who without fail keep voting for creatures like this no matter how they betray the people in due course, you couldn't make it up, but then when the three main parties, who tribally people seem convinced have to vote for one of, are more or less identical, then up to a point one can understand.

My point about this is that if you go into a shop and they don't have anything worth buying, you don't buy anything, and i suspect those who haven't bought from the failing shop for possibly all of their lives finally turned out in droves to vote Brexit when it was a vote that would count, whether the powers that be realise the solid working backbone of the country has finally reached a point of ''no more matey'' they may well find out the hard way if the party currently masquerading as Conservative try to welch on Brexit, and i don't mean at the ballot box either i mean in the streets utilsising many lamposts.

I have no doubt in Cameron's or Osborne well heeled modern tory constituencies that a donkey wearing a blue rosette would still be elected, just the same as half wits keep electing certain Labour or Lib MP's who appear to utterly despise the genuine working class they pretend to represent.
