THIS MAKES UNCOMFORTABLE READING..BUT
Without exception, all political parties are engaged in mutually destructive campaigns desperately trying to deliver warped interpretations of the Big Possible. It is hugely embarrassing to witness the relentless yet fruitless pleadings and cant of failing politicians trying to out do each other with facile promises to voters.

(b) could avoid liabilities by ensuring that they chose the right person for prime minister
