Holehouse, Matthew. "Move to North Korea If You Want to Trust Politicians." The Telegraph. Telegraph Media Group, 03 Aug. 0013. Web. 15 Nov. 2013.

Summary: Taking about  political system, "Dictatorship & Communist system" would be the two that have gained the most "trusts" from people, whoever, people in the country no matter old or young, they all have to to follow and obey every commands a leader willing to speak out.  Although, unlike the two above, democracy and republic are different, ruling a government or a country require a big "YES" from people to make changes. Mention only government members, some politicians may agree on the plan that a leader (or a president) have discuss about, but later on, they secretly make things happen in order to stop it work. Is every government or some government have a good trust on the politicians? The article "Move to North Korea if you want  to trust politicians" - Matthew Holehouse, political correspondent, he has wrote this article based on a speak of Eric Pickles

● Who? The communities secretary, Erik Pickles has a statement on the most trusted government that he had mentioned, Dictatorship and Communism.

● What? He was saying how the members in the government act out to please their leader in the meaning of "I'm trusting you". No doubt on what he's saying, "Cynicism is good. You should always doubt people who have power. Power does corrupt." Yes, folks that are the members of the political system and aware of what would happen. Less power folks, they are affair of being kick out by a leader, because this is a dictatorship system. So they have to be really carefully on behaviors and attitude to their leader, such keep applauding nonstop as Pickle mentioned later. Because the members in political system are having a wealthy life and good condition for their children, yet, they might have others reason. However, it's a bad idea for them to against the government, they could be in trouble later.

● When? & Where?  On 13 Nov 2013, Matthew Holehouse evolved the conversation that Mr. Pickles had talked at Oxford Union.

● Why? Mr. Pickles wonders what could be the request to restore trust in politics. Because after the event of the "Shutdown of White House", it seems like a good topic to discuss about.
