Unfortunately, however, that passage probably is quite reflective of the prevailing opinion within the UK right now. Personally, I would rather politics went like this: Politician A says 'Here are my policies', then people can choose whether to vote for him or not. This well-trodden idea that politics is about winning with lies and then trying to last out the 5 years without being found out is why the average person in the UK is 'disillusioned with politics'.
The politicians who say 'You can't change anything unless you are in government' are the ones we will all be denouncing as liars in 10 years. Talk about turkey's voting for Christmas.
