Re: And yet
Have you seen the alternatives? Local candidates with one or two interests that matter to some of the other people in their local area, and no clue at all about national issues or national infrastructure. Celebrities who want an additional 15 minutes of fame for one of their characters (I'm mainly thinking Al Murray's Pub Landlord here). True Believers who don't understand how the real world really works and are willing to see the human race sent straight back to the stone age because someone told them we will all drown by 1990 if we continue to use fossil fuels. And other, even more stupid, "candidates" who want to go into politics because it saves them having to get a real job (unfortunately many of these do go into the mainstream parties and get elected, but there are still a large number who fail even at this).
