Politicians' pay and the cost of political establishments

This comparison separates politicians' above-average salaries from the overall cost of a country's political establishment.

Notes

British politicians are judged relatively inexpensive compared with political establishments elsewhere, despite salaries well above the national average. The comparison distinguishes the pay of an individual politician from the expense of the political establishment as a whole. No figures or particular foreign systems are specified.
