Should politicians be held to account, page-12

you really don't get out much at all

one cannot force someone to honesty ------- not possible

honesty is a culture -------- and it's also something that is a flexible character in a nature -------------

the nature of people who choose to be leaders -------- certainly political leaders ----------- tends to give people who are anything but what would be called honest

the very nature of politics means that many things are hidden ------------ and honesty doesn't just mean telling lies - it means to mislead or not etc etc.

politics is the animal it is because of 'elections' ----------------- it is, IMO - the very worst way of choosing leaders

so too is the way of brute force - the biggest muscleman is leader ------------- great bod - shame about the head
