“Political language, as used by politicians, does not venture into any of this territory since the majority of politicians, on the evidence available to us, are interested not in truth but in power and in the maintenance of that power.

What surrounds us therefore is a vast tapestry of lies, upon which we feed”. -Harold Pinter ---
