I think it is very strange that politicians constantly lie and get
away with it. Think about all the lies Tony Blair has said during the
course of the Iraq war, not to mention lies concerning internal
matters....he has not been forced to leave office despite trying to
deceive the British public. The pressure from the media is not
enough...most politicians manage to shrug off this pressure without
having to face any real consequences...
However, I found this website the other day:
http://mo-truth.blogspot.com/
They are making a documentary about how our politicians are able to lie throughout their careers and face no consequences...it is a really interesting and insightful documentary. Also, they appear to be trying to get a law passed to stop this injustice...if you feel passionately about the topic (especially in the wake of Tony Blair's decisions with regards to Iraq) then discuss your opinions on the website...I believe that if we show our support to these people then the law might get passed, otherwise parliament will not believe that anyone cares enough to even consider it
