Left-wing stars who have been outspoken in their attacks on Government cuts have pocketed hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayers' money to front public-anti cuts service campaigns. Comedians Al Murray, Rhod Gilbert, Bill Bailey and Shappi Khorsandi were paid £195,000 by Public Health England, for an anti-smoking campaign (left). Actress Julie Walters was also paid a staggering £400,000 to appear in fire-safety adverts (top right) and Downton Abbey actress Michelle Dockery appeared in a VisitEngland TV advert campaign (bottom right), for a 'nominal fee'. Tory MP Andrew Bridgen said it was 'astounding hypocrisy from the champagne-socialist luvvies'. Mail.
