There are not that many number of previous sheet metal labourers in House of Common indeed, valuable are some who had a proper job and there would be a fewer when her or his resignation takes place in the next month.

Few of the censure for which he had been subjected when 1st had appointed the reeked of the snobbery. However this had been rendered inappropriate by the sequence of the sensational scoops regarding MPs’ expenditure and ill - treatment of their payments revealed by The Daily Telegraph.

It had been odd, giving his background, which the Speaker Martin did not understand, the anger of the public regarding the embezzlement of the millions of the pounds of the taxpayers’ finances in the midst of recession.

Politicians gluttony appears specifically horrible at the time when over two million individuals had lost their work and we have been informed that there is been no enough money to perfectly provide our confident and brave young generation in Afghanistan.

So I had been already in 2minds regarding the sad sight of a elderly man who was been chased from the office when Leader of the House of Commons, Harriet Harman issued the statement - Michael Martin’s resignation as Speaker is an act of great generosity to the House of Commons that MPs from all parties will respect – on Tuesday.

Hold on for a moment, and then I thought, that actually who is trying to be kind to whom? The speaker’s premature retirement (when he was sixty three years old) would be liberally cushioned by fine old tax payer with the pension amount under 2.1 million pounds only.

That is how much the retirement specialized Origen tells me that the ordinary individuals should have saved to purchase an annuity or have guaranteed proceeds for life time, say about seventy one thousand pounds in a year or ½ salary of the Speaker – one hundred and forty one thousand eight hundred and sixty six pounds.

This is actual figure displayed in the official documents of last year’s April, when I got in touch with Commons in order to know the present figure, but my calls weren’t returned. I think they were too occupied with paper shredder.

As we all know for sure that the portion of Speaker’s pension which is above the retirement funds of other MP’s doesn’t need any contributions made by him.

Fine still, Speaker will be permitted to get ½ his pay as pension, in spite of how much time he had been in that post. Also by standards of House of Common, it is considered to be a generous scheme.

It’s been more than decade as I had started reporting on widespread gap between under pressure retirement finances of constituents and MP’s bullion plated pensions.

At that time, I use to get angry letters of backbenchers of both houses and after a while, they became silent.

His tremendous retirement fund makes us recall that MP’s may had been even more cautious in preserving their pensions and lower down their eager in order to tax these, so that when they are old, they could rely on this.
