    You are correct. People expect big sweeping changes and are upset when it doesn’t. What people need to realise is that it’s like a rudder on a giant ship. If you keep voting left then you slowly move left. Which also means any time the right wins we stay on course or move further right.

    People need to take a long term view.

      Until you actually look at the rudder and realize it’s not connected to the electoral system at all.
