    You need to clarify your position a bit better as this statement applies to every politician that has ever lived (and those that are yet to come)
    Not quite all
    I could believe the single-issue, non-party, non-career politicians are not the same as the rest of them

    e.g. Richard Taylor (I think it was) elected to save the Kidderminster A&E dept

    I don't 'hate' any politician ; I dislike some ( stand up Ed Balls) and dislike the policies of some parties. But in a politically centrist country we live in no extremes have got near power in many many decades.

    I don't want share your hatred and pity you for it , it can't be healthy holding that much bile.

    You are a big drama queen, grossly exaggerating every slight and misfortune you imagine you have suffered and wallowing in victim status

    I don't like what's going on in Govt today, but then i'm not sure the other crowd would do a lot better.
    I think some of the professional politicians who learn in their Public schools that it's a good well paid career to go for, so are there mainly for themselves. But even those politicians that start as wanting to help and improve the lives of others soon get caught up in the system, and self preservation takes over.

    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.
