I realised yesterday what turns me off British politics. What I mean is I realised what really bugs me about those interested in British politics.
There's a class of people who are interested in, knowledgeable about and who have influence over British politics. They are always up to date with the latest initiatives, acts and gossip. They expand on every detail - extrapolating the effects of every twitch.
What they seem to miss, however, is the bigger picture. Our government seem dead set on doing away with our every civil liberty. They almost abolished parliament, for goodness' sake! We will soon be - of we are not already - living in a police state. I am saddened to say that I no longer believe we can honestly say that we live in a free country any more.
Meanwhile, the politicos concern themselves with who will be the next deputy Prime Minster - as if none of this mattered.
I despair.
