      I think it must be tough to be the person who gets called out if everyone doesn’t get what they want. I also think it a shame that a sound ideas and policies are torn to shreds because the people implementing them aren’t up to scratch. I must admit, I’m not a very politically minded person, however there are forums for youth involvement if you have strong views you’d like to express.

      I’m not sure if I might have already mentioned this in response to another question, but check out this is you’re interested::

      The very nature of politics (and human egos) lends itself to corruption. Its up to good people and a system of checks and balances to keep the corruption at bay. In the end, I think justice normally wins the day… or at least I hope so, especially in science!!!
