Trust in politicians remains the lowest since records began; a clear demarcation that the system is simply not marrying up to the expectations of a 21st century society.
Ipsos Mori reports that just 9% of the British public trust politicians to tell the truth, and perhaps even more startling, just ‘2% of those aged 25-34 consider politicians to be truthful'. 34% believe local councillors to be truthful and trusted – a sad statistic for the people volunteering their time as elected representatives1.
