Politician, hmm.
Don't they mainly do that to score some ludicrously overpaid consultancy after a couple of years?

I'm a poor liar and I'm sure I would give direct answers. Not sure how long I would last, telling the truth.
Plus I'm pro brexit and don't like religion (any religion). Plus I want rid of the monarchy, or just keep Megan. So I don't think I fit any electorate.

Politicians only think they're running the country. They're not. They have zero clout unless a they're a Cabinet Minister and even then hardly any.
Civil servants are running the country. That is where the power is.
