Lee Anderson’s second job hypocrisy
Lee Anderson: he’s the one on the right, pictured with another controversial man at the moment, Boris Johnson. Strangely enough, ’30p Lee’ has not, to This Writer’s knowledge, criticised Johnson for the many other paying engagements he takes on and it seems unlikely he ever will, now that he has also taken a second job.
Tory MP ’30p Lee’ Anderson, who once said MPs should not take second jobs but should quit Parliament altogether before seeking a higher-paying career… is taking a second job.
He’ll be drawing down £100,000 a year on a GB News TV show:
“We are paid handsomely for the job we do and if you need an extra £100,000 a year on top then you should really be looking for another job.” – 30p Lee Anderson.

Lee Anderson(November 2021) – "For me, being an MP is a full-time job… it’s not a hobby & I think some people in parliament see it as a bit of a part time thing"

The hypocrisy is clear. I don’t have video clips of Anderson saying the words quoted above, but here’s one of him saying MPs who can’t live on their £84,000-a-year salary should get a job as a lorry driver instead:

The funny side is, Anderson wouldn’t even do that.

30p Lee is your typical lying corrupt hypercritical opportunistic Nazi fascist racist bigoted Torie sack of #hit. Who takes every opportunity to attack the poor and defenseless as he has nothing but contempt and hatred for them. While all the time lining his pocket. With his two jobs and claiming expenses for being an MP. The man is just a was of space and good oxygen.
These MPs who get second jobs need to make up their minds either they are a MP or a TV presenter and resign if they have second jobs represent your constituents or have a by-election so they can choose a person to represent them
