But when people start slating Seagal, I open a can of whoop-ass.*
Indeed, that was poorly worded.
But a semi-secret, invite only society based on wealth that appears to lead people into positions of higher management stinks, to me, of an unfair advantage. Particularly when said society (allegedly) has such a poor reputation.
However, having said that, I don't know of anyone who especially wants to be a politician - so perhaps it's an even less valid post than it already wasn't ( ).
That's not true, at least in regard to that issue.
The fact is, it wasn't a scandal because a.) no-one was even sure it had happened and b.) even if it did happen, while foolish, it's nothing more than a bit silly and typical of the kind of stupidity that rugby clubs, students, and military units get up to all round the country.Not really a scandal, just embarrassing.
The reverse is true in my opinion, and in fact it's often a subject of debate on the news programmes; should decent (i.e. well meaning and otherwise honest) politicians have their careers ended because of some minor foolishness, bedroom or alcohol-related personal stuff, which has no bearing on their jobs, whereas others, who are squeaky-clean but useless, serve on (Corbyn?)
The press shout about public interest, but what they end up doing is depriving us of talented (but maybe quirky) individuals, or people with a past, or those who don't wish their private lives to be laid out in public (Labour leadership contender?), and we're left with mediocrity. Whichever side of the political divide you're on, that benefits no-one.
The French have the right idea: they don't give a monkeys, as long as the guy/girl is good at their job.
Proper political scandals are rare, like cash for questions etc, and almost immediately give rise to resignations and sackings, quite rightly.

Fucking hell, the man can barely string a sentence together.
He keeps referring to himself in the 3rd person.

George W Bush couldn't complete a sentence and still doesn't know what 3rd person is.
