It sounds like some assumed Andy Coulson was earning £275,000 Conservative director of communications before heading into Downing Street. Today, some newspapers are reporting he's earning £140,000 after parliament released the figures, though many journalists noticed this is still a higher wage than Nick Clegg.
"The ceiling for special advisers' pay is £142,500, ensuring they do not earn more than Cameron. They are paid for by taxpayers to provide political advice to ministers and No 10."-Guardian
The list of salaries showed the earning of special senior advisers for Government, though despite the transparency the questions about the role advisers play in government still remain.
What do you think about advisers to ministers? Is it important we know more information about their role in government?
