Maybe so, but compared to a lot of places the actual wages aren't so high. £65k per annum is not a high wage for a national politician. Not when you consider the wages paid to management level civil servants in local government.

They're paid a decent amount, if the expenses and allowances are taken into account (the legitimate ones).
