MP's can't fit into the real world.


Politicians who lose their seats struggle to make a living in the real world, research has found.
The study said employers have little use for former MPs - and some take more than a year to find a job.

And those who do manage to find work often complain that they do not earn as much as they did in Westminster. Others sulk about losing the perks of the Commons.

**That would be the "perks" paid for by the hard put upon taxpayers.

A careers advice company cited in the report warned that a high percentage of former MPs 'were commercially unemployable at senior management level'.

**Go figure. Unable to live free of the host the parasites when removed will soon die.

A high proportion of those who do find work get places on quangos.

**In short back on the public teat, living off the taxpayer.

One called working outside politics "demeaning".

**Yes thats right, what we mere plebs have to do each day whilst funding the parasites of the House is demeaning.

And one commented: "No expenses for motor driving, no secretary, no parking space."

**Poor baby, my heart bleeds it really does.

Some complained that they were forced to leave their Commons offices too quickly after election defeat. Former MPs are given a week to quit the Commons.

**For fucks sake a week! Hell if they were temps they may not even get a days notice. If anyone can not reorganise a move in a whole week then how are they going to organise a job? Then again it says a lot about the "quality" of the MP's that we have here in the UK.

Others said they should get publicly-subsidised job retraining on top of their redundancy and pension packages.

**Do they not save any of their salery whilst in the job? Now they want more money. Only an over paid MP could claim that!
The report said that some rejected MPs had to deal with "nervous breakdown, divorce, heart disease, alcoholism, depression, serious debt and even suicide."

**Its called the real world and it shows how removed MP's are from the public.
