Bandwagon joiners.
Currently it is people who trot out any line you know has been in the media endlessly for days.
ATM it is politics ... we need a strong and stable leader, we need to save the NHS, we need to control our borders,
Taxbombshell blah, blah, blah.
Now I don't mind the phrases if the spouter can back up the slogan with a bit of argument or evidence but, you know the rest. The other day there was a focus group I was reading about in which one person said, "I didn't know we were in the EU until the referendum." They come on news programmes and they talk in cliches.
Maybe we get the politicians we deserve.
It's not just politicians. It's, 'Ooh I'm dehydrated or stressed or low blood sugar or needing a sugar rush. I need some me time, quality time, down time."
People talk and clearly believe such bollocks.
