Politicians not getting picture — it’s not flash but cash public wants

Our politicians are terrified of this unpredictable, volatile mood and as a result they are motivated by fear. The voters can smell that fear, and it decreases their respect even further. There is the sense that if someone ran an “adopt a politician for Christmas” they would all be left on the shelf.
The public has decided politicians are fit for nothing, and the politicians reckon if they can just convince people the economy is about to take off all will be forgiven and forgotten.
