Can a government do anything else?
Consider the number of people composing a cabinet, let alone a government: imagine how difficult to keep the long and interrelated web of conceptions floating and bouncing around their heads in perfect synch with one another at all times, and this assuming they have a clear idea of what half of the concepts they employ mean anyway. Remember how hard it is to have a seamless conversation with anyone especially, friends in particular. And then the chain of interpreters and reporters and their editors; the concensus you end up with (when you've made your own dodgy evaluations of course) is about as far from the 'truth' as you could possibly hope to get. Is a lie as bad if its inevitible, albeit magnified beyond all reasonable treatment by any individual? Fuck knows... that's why I don't vote for anything. What 'thing'?
