our pollies say lots of of good stuff -

Once upon a recent time a Prime Minister said "No child shall live in poverty by (date)" - oops, there are still lots in very poor circumstances, maybe even more than there were when he said it, long after the date passed. I think a British pollie copied those words recently?

The current incumbent talked about honesty in Government. Yet every time one of his ministers or members gets caught with their snout in the trough or telling porkies - nuffin' happens. There are always good excuses why they don't follow the Westminister tradition & resign. (In case you don't know, the current incumbrance is not a tall man & is small minded, which is why he is called the Prime Miniscule by workers in his department !)

He also coined the saying "core promises" - these are the ones that absolutely WON'T be broken. The others, well, they weren't core or at least that's what he told us when they were broken! Political cartoonists has a field day with that showing little kids repeating the PM's words. Not a good example for the citizens of tomorrow.

Tho is any politician a good example for the citizens of tomorrow? Now if we all had a few statesmen/women we might have a different world.

'nuff said
