There are need too many career politicians. All of whom have absolutely zero experience of what ‘normal’ people experience
Example: Andy Burnham the Shadow Health secretary. I went to school with him. He went from school to Cambridge, then straight into Westminster – the labour press office as a spin doctor, then parliamentary secretary, then parachuted into the second safest seat in the country.
So he’s never actually had what most people refer to as a ‘job’. He’s spent his entire adult life within a bubble – the confines of Cambridge Political debating societies, then Westminster.
And he’s like everyone else in parliament, on both sides.
And then we’re surprised when they appear totally disconnected and lets be honest here…. utterly ****ing clueless
The stuff they’re obsessed with, the rest of the country couldn’t give a **** about. Because real people have very real problems to worry about. None of which anyone in Westminster appears to give a flying **** about either.
The disconnect is now almost total!
