I can understand that maybe 200 - 300 years ago that running the country was probably decided on political and moral viewpoints, however in the 22nd century surely there must be a better way to do it.
As an over simplistic view since the 60's Labour in power, spend more than should eventually get thrown out, Tories come in make life tough to balance books, country gets feed up by the time books are balanced and Labour comes in - repeat and rinse.
How is that going to change.
