In reality I fully believe you couldn't get a fag paper between their ideas. I'm probably cynical but I truly think that the faces at the front change but the machinery of government marches on inexorably with no thought for the population and what it wants/needs. Those at the front aren't even steering, they are figureheads. Wooden, unseeing, unfeeling, brightly-coloured and ultimately powerless.

We'd use them as impromtu sacrificial feeler gauges when setting up grinding jigs, back in the days when I was a toolmaker.
