True, it's more like 6 figures plus perks.
You can't run two households on a salary of 60k a year.
MPs don't run two households. They run one household and one London property (which they don't actually need in the first place). Historically, MPs have chosen to run expensive London properties because they know that the taxpayer is footing most of the bill. If they choose to run an expensive London property and decide later that they can't afford it, that's their problem not mine.
