Meeting Politicians You Don’t Like/Can’t Stand

[lisa jones]

I can’t disagree with anything you’ve stated.

My vote looks for capability. Albo (and Labor for that matter) have none of that.

As regards honesty, transparency and fairness ... why only someone as naive as myself could even hope to find that in politics. On any level. It’s even prohibited on a little obscure insignificant forum like OzPol. Standing up FOR honesty, transparency and fairness is not allowed because it’s considered dangerous by those who have a lot to hide.

I consider all politicians as professional liars.
If they are talking it's most likely a lie or at the very least
a misinterpretation of the truth -
and can also contain omissions.

Lawyers are no different. In fact both politicians and lawyers are trained to master the art of professional lying and to perfect their skills in deception. It’s probably all about distorting the appearance of reality. Playing cruel mind games even. We the people are the chosen victims of such wanton evil self appointed “gods”.

Hi Lisa,
I know that in any workplace I've been in -
there is no way I could get away with the type of answers politicians give -
especially those in question time.
example:
labor is asked about their record on some issue -
and instead they talk about the Liberal record -
they never answer the questions.

They are sneaky, dirty, lying scoundrels and they call themselves honourable.

You do realise you’ve effectively described OzPol and the current GMods on offer and how Freediver chooses to operate. Yeah? Little wonder people like Muso leave in protest and while others who remain and who do protest for change, do so to no avail.

There’s a lot to be said for microcosms....
