Mentions of English politics and how much politics actually have a hold on England is slipped under the rug, that being said, the political jargon is used to address a more serious matter. The governments and their inhabitants Gulliver encounters are a representation of the English and how they come to terms living with it. The first point used by Swift is to acknowledge the fact that…
