Well, there's the US viewpoint. Now the real world.

Politicians maybe sleazy and corrupt and it is disapointing to say the least. Here in Hyndburn there is sleaze but people don't want to vote against it.

However the private sector is many times worse. Ask yourself this. Who would you want minding your pension. Mr Enron perhaps, or Robert Maxwell maybe? Or have your water charged to the shareholders of a privatised water company?

Most people in Britain accept the most sleaze is with private individuals and companies.
