Meh, I dunno... The less you pay a politician, the more likely they are to be open to under-the-table deals, payoffs and bribes. And you're MORE likely to get independently wealthy people entering politics, who dont need the pay at all, but can use the position to stack the deck to further their "real" financial interests.
Mr Cameron and Mr Osbourne, for example, are both very rich men - and it's not from their government salary. Just sayin'.
