Unelected.

   

        They keep saying we live in a democracy, a country where we elect those we wish to hold the offices of government. However, if it suits the powers that be, they will introduce someone who hasn't been elected, just to suit their political ambitions. One David Cameron, of Eton Bullingdon Club, he who introduced the Brexit referendum and lost then resigned. while in office he introduced us to austerity and the disastrous illegal war in Libya. In his retirement from parliament, he decided to persistently lobby all his old chums in government to give our tax money to one of his cronies to boost his business. You would say that makes him unfit for government office. Of course politics is an underhand shady business, so unelected David Cameron pops up as Foreign Secretary. A slight of hand, just give him a seat in the House of Lords and hey presto, he can hold a ministerial post unelected. Ah, the wonders of capitalist democracy in this land of imperialist pomp and ceremony.
