I agree ,i suggested Australia or Canada mainly because their legal system isn't that far removed from ours

Unfortunately given the spate of scandals from our ruling elite i fear that public trust of our leaders is already a thing of the past .The question is how do we get it back ,we need to trust our politicians and leaders or society simply stops working so if it is found that MP's swept abuse under the carpet then it will be really bad for todays government because it will be really hard to accept that the same abuse isn't still happening
