The answer is A. Politicians have no respect for other's privacy. The use of the phrase "the hog-pen was still empty" suggests that politicians are of the same level as pigs. They are animals who cannot even take care of themselves; who are foul-smelling; and greedy. Moreover, they are not ashamed to intrude people's private lives for the sake of their selfish ambitions and vested interests.
