Summary

This quote emphasizes the public's cynicism towards politics, particularly due to instances where a Cabinet Minister who has been dismissed for dishonesty is later reappointed, only to repeat the same offense and be sacked once again by the same Prime Minister. These actions undermine basic constitutional conventions and erode trust in the political system, causing the public to question the integrity of politicians and their decision-making processes. It highlights how such occurrences contribute to a sense of disillusionment and skepticism among the general population.
