    I think to most people if you can afford a “flutter” of eight grand you can afford not to be an MP.

      If you were single and earning an MPs salary it could be a bit of a no brainer - could you get a other equally or better paying job within a few months? Considering you have been a politician for the last 5 years not an SME in whatever field?

      If you had a family on that salary, unsure. If you agreed it with your other half as a planned move, maybe?
