Just assuming that was the case until I mentioned Ruth Davidson. If I was a Tory, I would want Ruth leading our party.

The Guardian - Ada Colau - Mayor of Barcelona - Is this the world’s most radical mayor?

Quote:

In the weeks following her victory, Colau signalled what might be new about the new politics, with a series of headline-grabbing reforms. “This is the end of a political class removed from the people,” she said, cutting expense accounts and salaries of elected officials. She announced she would reduce her own pay from €140,000 to €28,600, slashed the budget for her own inauguration ceremony, and replaced her predecessor’s Audi with a more efficient mayoral minivan. (She was eventually blocked by political opponents from reducing her salary below €100,000 and has stated that she will donate the remaining sum to local groups.) She suggested withdrawing the annual €4m subsidy to Barcelona’s Grand Prix circuit, restored school meal subsidies to the city’s poorest children, and levied fines worth a total of €60,000 on banks that owned vacant properties. (At the posturing end of the spectrum of political action, she removed a bust of the recent King of Spain, Juan Carlos I, from the city hall’s council chamber.)

Socialist, anti-royalist, pro-right to choose for Catalunya (even if she's not exactly for independence which I try not to hold against her). My absolute hero. A super smart, badass woman that has principles and (at least until now) seems to be ethically spotless.

I think it's probably not that uncommon that politicians like that exist, but it's highly unusual when they get elected to public office, because, politics are horrible and people are generally shit. :/

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has made waves as a middle finger to the status quo.
