Politicians, local councillors, police, social services and NHS managers, and civil servants - in fact anyone acting in any sort of 'official' capacity is likely to have a secret agenda designed to safeguard vested interests and will 'only be obeying orders' and lying. Can any of them be trusted? Do you believe any of them?

I do not trust anyone in authority as they cheat, lie, delay and are not to be trusted. I have a lot of experience in this field. The governments and it's offsprings used to be the public servants. The tables have turned, and now the public are the public servants. The government has taken family assets unlawfully and totally destroyed peoples lives in their quest for fame and fortune. Let's face it Mr. B. Liar is now set to make millions for his memoirs and public speaking. He has destroyed the NHS with the help of Patricia Hewitt which was the cornerstone of the Labour party. His legacy is a one of deceipt and lies.
Kind Regards,
Stephen (Johnson).

Everyone has an agenda. Everyone.
Simply stated, I don't trust a lot of people in positions of authority any longer. Especially anyone in the Bush White House.
Abuse of power has been given free reign and the general public refuses to act on its best interests.
Laws and documents are only as meaningful as the people who enforce them.

It doesnt matter either way cos i believe that if it is the case and they are lying then your not going to find out until its too late to do anything about it. I also would say that I for one have always been sceptical of what i am told and then come to a conclusion after examine what i know. i would like to think that they are not liars and that they told the truth...but then how can you tell?

I trust myself. I use as much fact as possible to reach my own conclusions about what politicians tell me; and always start off from a skeptical point of view
IS there such a thing as an honest politician?

Just because I do not believe everything I am told, it does not mean that I believe they are all liars. I make that determination after I have verified what they said.
A wise man once told me "Don't believe anything you read, and only half of what you see"

Just be mindful of what their agenda might be. Everyone has one
