A few years ago and from memory its not that much.
An MP gets about £48000, rising all the way to Prime Miister who gets £75000.
However they can also claim expenses, which have to be publically available for inspcetion. These can often be as much as the salary.
Being an MP is not about money, but once you stop, the private sector are clambering fro your services, then you rake it in, if your any good !

Depends on what role they have and can therefore vary substantially.
In any case it is far too much given the number of clowns we have in government at the moment.

About 95% more than they are worth.
