Is our political system creaking?

The tragedy of Jo Cox does not need repeating nor dwelling upon.

We have heard many times repeated this week that MPs need to be shown greater respect for the job they do.

I absolutely agree.

However - the reason given by so many of the voters is the lack of trust they have in politicians.

I can't see this improving in the near future, as whichever side wins the referendum we will then become aware of the lies, hyperbole and myths we were subjected to by our MPs as the immediate and midterm future unfolds.

We are told as children we must earn respect. Politics is a two way thing.
