seeder Posted July 1, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Agreed, and then we remember what he said previously 'We're All In This Together'. hhmmm, so why haven't I had an un stoppable pay rise then? And of course the Queen has had a rise too, like she needs it on top of her millions - and her pension... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewinn Posted July 1, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 1, 2013 look at the pay rises in the european parliament, our dear unelected president of the european union is on €320,000 a year. Each EU commissioner earns €19,909 euros a month. That's €238,908 euros a year ($298,635 per year). The High Representative gets a higher salary of €23,006 euros a month (276,072 euros a year or $345,090). its going on everywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then in todays news we learn.... House Of Lords To Get £100,000 New Toilets a choice quote: "However, the costs will not be helped by the fact that the work must comply with English Heritage requirements for Grade I listed buildings". It includes replacing "historic oak panelling", minor demolition work, new decorations and new sanitary equipment. http://uk.news.yahoo...12.html#aCKbUFa And no doubt silk toilet paper too .

Yamato Posted July 4, 2013 #6 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Looks like Bilderberg didn't work for poor Cameron. Still can't wrest the control away, even with all that secret evil he participated in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
