Clerk job - guess the salary!

I read the first part of this but was staggered when I read what the pay is.

"The clerk of the House is the principal constitutional adviser to the Commons, and adviser on all its procedure and business."

So what do you think the pay is?

Or am I out of date with pay scales?

If you can't be bothered to click the link the pay is £200k

Eric, I do know what that type of clerk does and wouldn't consider it to be an office monkey job.

But I was just surprised at the pay - maybe it's because the clerk has to has some intelligence to advise the MP's that, in general, have little.

No offence meant Eric, but you might want to read what I said in relation the the job.
