I'm not making excuses for them. Like I said they all lick from the same dog bowl. They are all scum. They are all parasites. None of them are worth anyone's vote, it's a charade designed to further the illusion of choice and appease the masses.

I disagree with the extremity of your conclusion , though I share some of your despair and cynicism. I do think blair was a whole other level of evil though. He was a stupendously corrupt dishonest disingenuous man. He IS responsible for the lies that lead to the extinction of 1 million innocents.
However I also believe there is some goodness in some politicians amongst the parliaments. Though clearly the entire system is broken unfit for purpose. I would also add its vital not just to look at parliament, but closer to home we must scrutinise far closer the corruption at councils...we have over obsessed on parliament at times and the odd pervert in the churches, the local councils impact peoples lives far more as does corruption and cover ups in the private and public sectos...but for all the 1000s of failed politicians there is the odd neu bevan and Lloyd George to whom we should all have some eternal gratitude for.
