Gordon Brown Has A Second Job

As Prime Minister.

If the second job of Minister is all right, then why not the second job of anything else?

Tony Benn and Michael Foot were working journalists throughout their time as MPs, including their time as Cabinet Ministers.

Being an MP is not a full-time job. It simply isn't. Only the evisceration of local government has turned it into one, if you want it to be one. For that as for so many other reasons, that evisceration urgently needs to be reversed.
