PEOPLE may call me cynical about our current crop of politicians but the next lot will probably be far worse.

The working class Labour party has nearly completed its list. Easy, since 75 per cent of candidates are already working inside the Westminster bubble as special advisors, researchers and aides.

They are already schooled in the dark arts of climbing the greasy pole as they hope to start their careers in the cushioned-from-reality House of Commons.

The best way to thrive in the bubble is to promise your electorate everything but disguise your words in double speak. Remember Lord John Prescott’s vow to abolish the House of Lords?

If you are from a working class background your chances of joining the political elite are virtually zero, and being a socialist with ideas to improve people’s lives is a no-no.

Now we all know the only way to get on the Tory list is to have good family connections and attend a public school, Eton preferably, but Rugby will do.

Self-made millionaires from poor backgrounds are allowed in, if only for publicity reasons.

I cannot say too much about the Liberal candidates as standing for them is a sure fire way of committing political suicide.

Currently you can be signed up and become a candidate, if you can throw a few bob into its political fund as all previous benefactors have fled to safer ground, mainly UKIP.

You could become leader, since I suspect the present incumbent may flee to become an EU commissioner unless they manage to get into a another coalition.

You pay your money and make your choice, but I will not be casting my vote.

They are all a devious bunch of freeloaders whose main aim is the complete destruction of Great Britain PLC.
