Other Labour MPs with second jobs include Khalid Mahmood, MP for Birmingham Perry Bar, who advises think-tank the Policy Exchange on issues including extremism for £25,000 a year.

Margaret Hodge has a £20,000-a-year role at Royal Holloway University and Dan Jarvis is paid £79,000 to serve as Metro Mayor of the Sheffield City Region.

Meanwhile, Christ Bryant received £2,000 for speaking at an event for Goldman Sachs.
The Dan Jarvis one is my favourite. He’s been elected to two jobs, and been re-elected to the first one in 2019 having taken the second one in in 2018.

Not the best example of whataboutery it’s not like he trousered 400 grand advising a tax haven on how to win a legal case against the UK.
