No.

I have issues with a government that exploits a global crisis to spend billions on filling their friends pockets instead of fulfilling an emergent life saving need.

I have issues with governments that manufactures the biggest political divorce since the fall of the USSR, with the sole intention of making already rich people much richer.

I have issues with a government that, in an energy supply crisis which is directly creating untenable cost of living increases for the majority of the working class, chooses not to change regulations that allow unnecessary profiteering, chooses not to put money directly in the pockets of the struggling public, rather provides a bailout in the tens of billions for the global energy giants that are already generating record profits on a promise that those don’t further increase already record high prices.

I have a problem with corruption. Competence has a ceiling, especially in the context of a democracy. Governments can make mistakes, missteps and when they do, absolutely should be fairly criticised.

The UK is currently on 5 out of the last 6 Prime Ministers initially gaining power by an internal party vote. Yes 2 of those 5 went on to win General Elections but that’s still periods of years we’re talking about where the government that was elected is not the government that’s in power - 2 of those governments are since the most corrupt government in modern UK history was elected and fell apart.
