It's not about second jobs it's about democratic accountability. I don't want to limit MPs' connection with the real world but having MPs present and discuss the news in their own programmes is undemocratic. The conflict of interest is huge and more at home in North Korea than Northern Europe.
MPs should be guests on TV programmes where they are held to account for their actions.
