SIR – I was intrigued by Peter Luff MP’s response to the vote by a majority of MPs to delay changing parliamentary boundaries (January 30).
He said that “the size of the Commons is too big, companies are downsizing and shedding jobs and they would be expecting us to do the same”.
If he is concerned about the Government leading by example, surely he ought to have criticised MPs for revealing in a survey that they believe they ought to receive a pay rise way above the one per cent public sector pay rise?
