the problem seems to be becausewhich ever establishment stooge you vote for, the establishment always gets in
it doesn't matter how each group seems to individually arrange the deckchairs on deck, if the same people are always steering the ship.
There was even a piece in the Guardian by Monbiot a while back about the 'corporation of london' and the ruling establishment elites within it and their complete unaccountability to the rest of this country and control over it(although it never went far enough but it at least talked about it). It seems absurd this group would allow any real threats to their power and the established structure . The appearance of democracy helps to keep us tamed.

that was below the beltyou bitch!
EDIT: also I will say the old boys networks (and the spineless fucks that make it up) are a good way to decide who are a safe pair of hands and how far each candidate progresses up the political ladder.
Those shown most pliable and most aligned with the aims of the establishment seem to be favoured and progress fastest through the ranks, seemingly untouchable to scandal, they're also more highly rewarded for serving it
Peter Mandelson comes to mind...now a Lord and last seen dining with the Rothchilds (one of the core Corp of London City groups)
