They retired, why should we still be paying for their holidays? This has no right to be paid by tax funds since it it no ways represents taxpayers or are retired MPs flying to Italy to discuss would peace by themselves.

Of course there is simply no other way to utilize this money.

Apparently, we just don't understand the value that they bring to our lives. I suppose I'm just too naive to see the benefit of people falling asleep in a big room and getting paid for it.
