lls ont le culot….these demagogues with their polished accents.

Yes, these very people who never walked the talk, on the contrary they did the opposite when they were at the helm ; they are now talking big on transparency and effectiveness of our institutions and even accountability, which they now believe should be monitored and enforced systematically with sanctions for noncompliance.
