A top Tory has suggested doctors shouldn’t complain about pay as he could be earning £400,000 but chooses not to.
Simon Clarke, who earns more than £84,000 a year as an MP, boasted that his salary would be much higher in the private sector but that he works as an MP because he believes in it.
The former Cabinet minister argued the Government does not “not get the credit” it deserves on NHS pay in a debate on Facebook.
