Some MPs are briefing newspapers that they'd stand down if they couldn't have second jobs as they couldn't possibly live on £82,000 per year.

Also can you respond to my letter dated 27th July which over 100k signed for a meeting to meeting survivors and their families to discuss impact of the scandal since your appointment as Home Secretary over two years ago @38_degrees
