Yeah, that is a bit of a leap, I'm sure there are some that are not, but I do think that nearly everyone who gets high up has to be dishonest. Misleading is in the job title I'm afraid.

If you sit down and dissect pretty much every politician you will be able to find them twisting the truth, misleading people.

Doesn't matter what party, what country, they all have to tow the party line, and they are all human so will make mistakes, however big or small, and they will want to cover those mistakes up.

I'm sure most go in thinking they will change things, they think they will put into place what is needed, but the reality is they all make promises they simply can't keep, doesn't matter what level or what that promise is about.

If you go looking for mud I'm sure you can find it with any politician, that was my point.

Anyway, I sound like I'm defending Boris, haha.

I'm not, but I would genuinely prefer that bumbling buffoon back instead of Rishi. Rishi is the first time in politics I have feared for the future of our country and my children's future.
The thing is he will appease the central bankers and the press will be glowing over how he has appeased the markets, and when people hear it they will cheer him on, they will trust that he is doing what is best for them. But is he?

No Darling, I've had it months!
