I don't know what I would class myself as politically. But I don't particularly like David Cameron either, he's never followed any of his promises. He couldn't give a shit about our citizens (hence our NHS and welfare system going down the bloody drain).
I don't think any politician in parliament is fit to lead the country at all. We need a strong leader who cares about the citizens and doesn't fuck about. We also need someone who doesn't want to just lick the US's arse all the time.
I'd also add that political systems are very nuanced and the voting populace tends to only get behind one big guy or another big guy. But there are a lot of little guys out there in more local systems that should be looked at with as much if not more scrutiny then the "big" contenders.
I believe the old cliche that all politics is local. If you don't get in good people on your local level then you won't have a good crop for the higher levels. People need to get off the big election cycles, where often they treat their opinions as if they were facts, and get fully invested in all the local candidates that present more often and are all too often neglected.
