Parliament is these people’s jumping off point for their real careers as “public speakers” and “think tank board members”, they don’t give a shit what impact they have on the “little people”, and many if not most are happy to try and get as much out of it for themselves as they can get away with (or not, since there is no real accountability). Never forget that, because they are the ones who set the rules, and if we play by them, we will get fucked, every time.
