I happen to think that the MPs stuff is a joke. These guys should be earning 200 grand, and never worrying about their financial future. Focus on making laws that deliver sober, long term benefits for this country. Don't think about which firm you need to be non-exec or consult for in order to pay your way after you leave the commons.

I confused your earlier point. I assumed you were talking about anyone who earned good money because I honestly couldn't fathom why you'd assume anyone who wrote about videogames earned anything close to a decent salary.ÂI simply said that you could argue the more someone gets paid the less inclined they are to rock the boat and jeopardise that position. Especially in one as seemingly competitive as being a game journalist paid to fly round the world getting early access to the latest and greatest videogames whilst thousands if not millions of people hanging on your words.
