Ranting Tory Lee Anderson is set to rake in £100,000 per year for his weekly TV show where he will be able to air his divisive views.
The Conservative deputy chairman slammed MPs for getting second jobs - before getting his own gig at GB News on the side.
Mr Anderson, who already earns £84,144 as an MP, began pocketing the bumper salary from March 1 - which will be paid to him monthly.
But he was soon exposed as a hypocrite after it emerged he has previously denounced MPs for splitting their time between the Commons and other work.
“I don’t have a second job, I love the job I have already,” he previously posted on Facebook .
Mr Anderson also publicly denounced ex-Cabinet minister Owen Paterson as he faced a row over his second job.

“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,” he posted.
The Ashfield MP criticised Labour ’s Jess Phillips after she made a one-off appearance on Have I Got News For You.
“I am sure Jess will donate this huge sum of money to a good cause in her constituency during these difficult times,” he wrote.
It follows GB News having hired fellow Tories Jacob Rees-Mogg , Esther McVey and Philip Davies.
Mr Anderson appears set to rake in more than his colleagues - and he will be expected to work just eight hours a week for the exceptional payout.
Tatton MP Esther McVey earned £58,650 as a GB News presenter in 2022, at an average of just under £900 per episode.
Her husband and co-host, Shipley MP Philip Davies, was paid £46,203 in the same year, an average of £679 per episode.
The Mirror exclusively revealed that Ofcom has warned Mr Anderson would have to stay ‘impartial’ while presenting his new TV show ahead of the local elections .
Locals in his constituency wrote to the broadcast regulator, complaining the MP’s hour-long Friday night show would give the Tories an unfair advantage in the May elections.
In this month alone, Mr Anderson was accused of "demonising" those in poverty by saying families "abuse" food banks then take their children to McDonald's and for "parroting far-right misinformation" after saying he had sympathy for people protesting outside hotels used to house asylum seekers.
He has repeatedly ranted about struggling Brits relying on foodbanks - and earned the nickname '30p Lee' for his claims about the cost of meals.
Mr Anderson sparked fury in January by claiming foodbank users squander their cash on cigarettes, alcohol, expensive TV subscriptions and holidays.
The controversial MP for Ashfield, who said Brits using foodbanks can't cook or budget, claimed his show will represent the "silent majority".
When the show was announced, he said: "It's true. A fantastic way to promote sensible opinions on the UKs leading unbiased news channel."
