Is there such thing as a good politician?

Not anymore! There were two good politicians with great heart and human values. John Smith and Gordon Brown and Britain has lost both of them. 

The measure of the man is what he does with power. Gordon battled his way to change things when he was in power but he was not a 'politician' in today's sense. He could not 'persuade' people to follow him as he was a doer and time was not on his side. The new 'boys' did everything they could to push him aside as our society could not tolerate 'politicians' like him. It is rather sad to see that his replacements the CON-LIB pact care for their image so much they are willing to leave their values behind because the party can not tolerate anyone that stands in its way. It has already claimed its first victim (David Laws) aiming for its second (Danny Alexander). Are they doing it because they care about OUR money or because the money scandal is exposed? Surely they knew before hand!  

Mr Clegg's favourite statement and strong belief about corrucption went like this: "There are MPs who flipped one property to the next, buying property, paid by you, the taxpayer, and then they would do the properties up, paid for by you, and pocket the difference in personal profit. They got away scot-free." 
Don't tell me that Mr Clegg didn't not know that some of his MPs hadn't abused the situation then because I'll refuse to believe it. He must have ignored it for the sake of his Party image. He hoped that no one will find out. Now he is doing it again! PARTY IMAGE! Sorry David Laws! You were a good politician!
