It looks like MP's are keen to spend their £7,000 pay rise and decided not to turn up to the last day in the commons before they broke up for their bumper 45 days annual leave.
When members in Contact Centres have found themselves in a disciplinary for arriving a minute past their scheduled start time and privilege days are being scrapped because they don't match what's on offer in the private sector, I think this shows that these government changes are pure and simply an attack on the working class.
Although one glimmer of hope we can take from this, given that this ConDem government are so keen to bring conditions within the government in line with those of the private sector, I'm assuming that 45 days annual leave and £7,000 pay rises must be common place within the private sector then (leading by example and all that) - so here's to 45 days leave next year and a nice £7,000 pay increase. I might be able to afford that upgrade to a silver caravan on my next "My £9.50 Holiday" (for those who watched the program on the BBC)
