Very true Tony
The general attitude is the govt exists to serve the people are they not too sympathetic or tolerate when govt screws up
Flipside is politicians, especially leaders, have to stand up and explain themselves weekly in parliaments, be accountable, and face their critics in front of cameras. Some of these sessions are kinda heated and lying and deception has a tendency to hit them in the face or end up in year long investigations
Generally the attitude towards any authority, whether govt or LE is cynical until legitimate foundation is established - then there would be cooperation. But if not - they are fairly often crucified and can disappear into oblivion.
