Re: No job equals no pay cuts
Public duties? "to reward former prime ministers for work including answering letters and attending public events."
As they are no longer PMs, there are no public duties: if they are invited to a public event they are normally already paid to do so by the organizers. Speeches, parties, photos... why public money too??? Even if they were not paid to attend or give their opinion, they would still be creating public interest in their figures, so they would be paid next time.

normally they want me to pay to attend + extra for eats
ISTR some Tory set up a trust for Maggie to enable her to meet the added costs of setting up an office, responding to letters, writing articles etc ??

Lies to us, lies to Parliament, drags us into a dishonest war and then settles back in lavish retirement, and while the rest of us scrimp and save, he merely rifles the public purse.

Filthy scum sucking benefit thieves the lot of 'em. Didn't that article say that Blair was getting more one year since quitting than he received when he was PM?

and he has been exceedingly low profile in his middle east peace envoy role since it got a bit hairy out there.
always was a waste of space.
