The problem with today’s society is that all the ‘brains’ go into the financial sector because that’s where the ‘big bucks’ are.That leaves us with likes of Angela Rayner as an MP; God help us! We have the talent and the brains in this country but unfortunately very few of these individuals enter into politics.

Totally agree.. makes you wonder if we actually need politicians to lead the country in the first place. If we say, running a country is like running a business - would you get a politician in? No, absolutely no. You’d get the best business director in the country. In my view that’s what we need. I’m sure we have plenty of them, if not we’ll need to start looking for an overseas business director perhaps from the states.Originally Posted by Leicesterbaggie

I know someone who went to a high end private school, not Eton but not far off. He told me it was fairly common knowledge that the high achievers would most likely go into business, finance or high end paid jobs. And the low to middle achievers, especially those with the right contacts, would go into politics. We're not getting the smartest people in parliament, even within their own school. Basically, if you have contacts high up within a particular party, you've got a great chance of forging a career into politics. If you have friends in the media like Boris Johnson, you've got a great chance of being PM.
The media and your network should not be the reason you are PM, or even in parliament.
