A total of seven MPs have averaged one working day per week on second jobs since the 2024 parliament began, with Nigel Farage earning the most through various media roles while voting only a third of the time. The analysis revealed that 236 MPs collectively worked 32,000 hours outside parliament, with a significant number involved in advisory roles or local council positions, raising concerns about their commitment to parliamentary duties. A Labour peer has called for a complete ban on second jobs, arguing that MPs should focus exclusively on their parliamentary responsibilities.
