With idiots like this in Parliament, is it any wonder that those of us sane enough feel (a) disenchanted with Parliament, (b) Have a disgust of dishonest politicians, (c) Have a belief that those who support them, are themselves either blinkered, ignorant and/or in need of psychiatric assistance.
It appears then that you have no case, and no argument other than name calling. The politics of the playground.
Your self righteousness and arrogance is typical of all extreme socialists, who all purport to be victims of the state when the left is not in power. Socialism itself is a failed doctrine and it is sold to the unsuspecting public like a religion, by unscrupulous people out to make a good living from it....think Kinnock, Blair, Prescott and virtually every other labour politician that you could name, but I would see labour voters as victims of a clever fraud rather than call them stupid..
It is a fact that no modern society can exist whilst there are more takers than givers, or more spenders than savers. That is where we are now thanks to 13 years of total financial incompetence by the left, and no amount of extreme left politics will cure our present ills.
I agree with you that millions of people, and myself included, are totally disenchanted with politicians of all persuasions, but that disgust in itself is not the sole preserve of the left, nor is blinkered foolishness and mental illness the sole preserve of the right...
