So, Mr Smith reads that Labour Leader of the Labour Group in the Scottish Parliament, has joined calls for more "support "for Members of the Scottish Parliament.
Mr Smith feels tempted to point out that as the Scottish Parliament is passing less legislation as a result of the "new politics," it surely follows that our elected representatives should be able to do more with the resources they currently have. It would be a really strange democracy which actually gave its politicians more money to do less, but Mr Smith wonders if the politicians will accept that? He suspects not.
