That is a huge part of the problem....disaffected, disillusioned voters. Voting appears to be a pointless pursuit, because the politicians say one thing when they want to be elected, and once they are elected say something entirely different.
I think the only way would be for every person in the country to withold their vote to let the parties know how we feel about their lying ways. It won't ever happen.
All the politicians are cut from the same crap bit of cloth.......there is no difference in any of them.
