E.U fishing policy

[EFLImpudence]

I would think Farage didn't want or try to improve the fishing policy, or any other, for Britain - for his own ends.

As the fisheries policy is only a small part of the bigger picture, I doubt if Farage would have thought along those lines. His main point of attack against the EU, was uncontrolled immigration. But I do think in getting paid to be an MEP, he should have turned up and done the job he was paid for.

On the other hand, look at the number of MP that seem to do very little, and the greater number of Lords, that do even less.

and the greater number of Lords, that do even less.

Being a member of the House of Lords is not salaried. They receive an allowance for turning up.

They receive an allowance for turning up

In other words they get paid...£300 per day

not a bad salary

Only if they turned up.
Doggit inferred that the Lords get paid for nothing.

 

[Notch7]

paid for nothing.

Snoozing in the chamber is doing nothing.....

 

[Doggit]

They take it in turns to snooze loudly, and that helps keeps the other awake. It'a very democratic system really.

Snoozing in the chamber is doing nothing.....

Oh no it is not!
It is snoozing!

You've only got to watch you tube to see how Farage rubbed the EU's nose in it time and again .......not many other people ftom this country stood up to them.
