There is an old saying that states that '..we get the politicians we deserve.' I think this is very true, it's no good moaning that the Mp's have had their noses in the trough, when we were all too busy worrying about who was going to win X factor, or get voted out Big Brother, or what Jordan was up to.
The last politically active generation was in the 1980's (cnd, anti-thatcher etc..) and but as times have gotten easier, and peace has been taken for granted. this and the increase in living standards has produced a lazy generation that has let the politicians and the 'elected dictatorship' get away with it. And now we scream,... too late, the deed is done...Will it invoke a whole new political alertness and interaction, I doubt it, ...What's happening in Emmerdale? (innit!)
As an aside there is a conspiracy that this says that this deluging the masses with entertainment devices and mass 24hr media is an attempt to steer them away from political interest so the shadowy forces can impliment their plans of one world govt, whilst no-one is looking, but, hey, that's another story.
