Brexit party Chairman Richard Tice donates MEP salary to Charity

Jump to: Newest in thread

 

By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

Brexit party Chairman, and newly elected Brexit party MEP for the Eastern region of the UK, Richard Tice has announced he will be donating his entire MEP salary to Charity. By refusing to pick up taxpayer funded wages from the EU, instead UK charities will now benefit, and the first charity he has decided to help is aimed at getting ex-offenders back in to work.

What a stark contrast it is in comparison to grubby money grabbing EU Presidents Jean Claude Juncker and Donald Tusk, who will be getting tax payer funded Golden handshake pay-offs totalling nearly half a million pounds when they leave office in November (this on top of their bloated £350,000 a year salary).

We're also still waiting to see if any Tory, Labour, Lib dem or Green MEP's will match Richard Tice's generous gift to charity, and so far non have been forthcoming.

Proof if it was ever needed that the champagne socialists of the Lib/Lab/greens are all talk and no action.

All your story says is that some geezer masturbating furiously in his union jack underpants is so stinking rich he doesn't need money. Cool party of the people.

Sinn Féin has more integrity than the Brexit Party - at least they refuse even to take up their seats in a parliament they fundamentally oppose.

Which of the other 28 Brexit Party MEPs will be following suit?

It is an act of exceptional generosity .

It is interesting to note that the money will be used to help ex offenders back into work. Companies such as Timpsons and Network Rail run schemes for ex offenders and Greggs the bakers are implementing one.

Why have no labour or lib dems MPs copied this gentleman's act of generosity

The same reason you don't give your salary to charity, because they, like you, need it to live on I would guess and, if they're doing the job, why shouldn't they keep the money they're being paid to do it? Better than taking the money and not doing the job like some UKIPers used to do. Like I said before, shows old Nigel more than anything else.

How much is he worth? Does he have any other sources of income?

Does Farage donate his salary to charity? Do you?

He certainly is in contrast to the other grubby money grabbing leeches that UKIP and the Brexit party have had on board, including that extremist filth Farage who has stolen so much hope, alongside the £millions wasted

What sort of mindset reads the express?

. Can't imagine this being an issue much longer , if the conservatives persist in Brexit means Brexit I don't think it will be long before Euros are the currency in the area we now refer to as Northern Ireland

Fair play to him, shame some on here are not gracious enough to understand his generosity. Says a lot more about them than him.

I'm no UKIP supporter and think a few more of them and the Bexit Party should also make a donation to show their support.

The SF MPs do NOT receive their salary. Don't let the facts get in the way of your prejudices

You normally get a salary for doing a job/work well. I wonder how good of a job those Brexit MEPs are doing, how often do they really attend the European parliament? I mean let's face it, they don't really want to be there and with only the one policy they have exactly that one to represent and most likely don't care about other European issues discussed.

So I can imagine that a lot of them will be rarely seen in Strassbourg. So yeah why not give your salary to a charity if you swim in money already and if you do very little for it.

They have access to public funds though from 2006 to 2016 they claimed 1.4 million dollars to carry out constituency work and hire staff.These special privileges were put in place in 2001 and the dup tried to get them scrapped in 2015.so dont let the facts get in the way of your spin either.

Hi. Glad some posters on here stick to the facts . It is good of you to take the time and research the issue.

They do the full casework of a constituency MP.

They do not sit in Parliament, however, because that requires them to swear allegiance to someone they see as a foreign head of state.

Do the Brexit MEPs have to swear allegiance to the EU before being allowed to take up their seats?

No, thought not.

So they are still carrying out the role of an MP in representing their constitutents?

Tice has done the right thing. Well played. I was kinda suprised this wasnt a TBP pledge given they essentially wanted to be elected to not do a job. And it's always felt odd to me the eu were held as being a gravy chain yet many were happy to ride it. Isn't a bout a third of the divorce bill down to keeping the gravy train going?

But I digress. Fair play to Tice for putting his money where his mouth is.

Probably because they're not all investment bankers with private wealth that enables them to give up the MEP salary that they need to live on.

Tice didn't get super rich by being Mr Niceguy.

Lib dems stood on a manifesto. They are planning to do a job there. Tice didn't. Why should he get paid for doing naff all? Why are you holding up lib dem MEPs (Pro eu) before TBP MEPs?
