He is the third highest earning MP, after Theresa May and Sir Geoffrey Cox, with most of his earnings brought in since he stepped down as PM in September. That number is only expected to rise.
The former leader has received more than £1m since October from just four speeches, with that number expected to increase.Mr Sunak replied by saying he did not think predecessors needed to be mentioned, but added:"I think it was one of his predecessors that did indeed work for Russia Today, if I'm not mistaken."
He was referring to former SNP leader Alex Salmond, who had a show on Russian state-sponsored TV Russia Today from 2017 until February last year when it was suspended due to the war in Ukraine.
Surely being an MP is his second job, as was being pm.
He’s as bent as a 9 bob note ToryScum
Jealous still
Well done Boris
They are making these puppets disturbingly lifelike 😬
Boring!!!
Y is anyone surprised ? In my opinion ,he never wanted to be PM, he wanted to be able to say he was the PM. He thought Brexit would be his glorious achievement, then covid hit, the illegal boats etc and he was less than the headlines he was expecting
Obama & Hilary coined the quid pro quo for ridiculous 'speakers fees' when leaving office, clearly for services rendered when in office.
The reason it is called a second job is that it does not have priority over your first job. Which Johnson will always ditch for more money or a freebie.

You can’t fix yesterday’s news. Get over it and fix tomorrow’s news.
Given all those dodgy contracts he gave out there should be even more money to rake in for cough....speeches ..cough. How easy it must be to pass public money around and then get your cut through speeches.
