We don't live in a democracy and haven't done for years. These people are selected and narrowed down to 2 in order to give you the illusion of choice. Historically, Labour and Tories are both pro war, as are republicans and democrats in USA. They are there to make the rich even richer (weapons manufacturing, resources and the military industrial complex is a big part of it). I've said for years politicians are just actors, the good ones end up Hollywood and the bad ones end up in politics but they are all owned by the same group of people and corporations.
