Slightly different angle.....
Takes a massive pay cut to be an MP, which is a ste job, maybe she just to make a difference ?
Also, she has done a proper job, not like the majority of Politicians from all sides of the House.
It isn't about the money, it's about the influence that it buys and the ability to steer government policy that suits your interests outside of government.
Agree it could construed as that.... But I welcome almost anyone who brings some real management experience to running UK Plc.

People keep talking about taking a 'pay cut'. Take the salary PLUS the 'expenses' PLUS all the 'advisor' fees and MPs do very nicely thank you.

It doesn't look like she's being accused of doing anything unlawful, so on that basis if what she did has given any self-righteous prolier than thou lefty a mild dose of indigestion then that's another bonus she's earned. Clearly it would be unfair to wish for anything more than a mild dose smile
