Maybe it has very little to do with the politicians up-bringing, and more to do with politics! The R.S.P.C.A is a huge charity and is one of the wealthiest in the country. I wonder what percentage of their income is spent on influencing political decisions instead of dealing directly with cruelty to children? I can understand them wanting a safer environment for minors and of course, should put pressure on M.P's but they, like the hunting fraternity seem to have far more "clout" than most other organisations

Saying that, I like your analysis (below) of politicians
