1. . By my reckoning, we paid our MP's about £60,000 in salary during the time it took to elect him (nearly 4 hours). Forget duck ponds, Parliamentary procedures are flushing our money down the toilet. Electronic voting would have done the job in minutes. (calculations based on annual salary split down into 48 x 60 hour weeks to give an hourly rate). Mind you, I'm not exactly holding General Synod up as a model of excellence at the moment (see post below).
