''Economical with the truth'' doesn't apply. For the years he gave false figures to the enquiry on defence spending he was Chancellor of the Exchequer. If he was ''poorly briefed'' he is guilty of lying to the electorate in saying he is capable of leading the nation.
And you've invalidated your argument for compulsory voting here. If ''all polititions'' are ''economical with the truth'' then they don't deserve guaranteed votes.
