Hypocrites you say?
Never!
A few years ago when the gov were debating banning fox hunting a regular refrain from the pro-hunters was
“The amount of time being spent on this on parliament is disgraceful. Can’t we talk about more important matters?”
Despite it being they who were dragging it out, thus demonstrating that their question was dodgy at best.
Well now. The Tories come along and, despite having their best chance for election since 1979, try their best to smack down any lingering doubts over their sympathetic qualities. You know some of us were hoping that when they’re elected they’ll actually turn out to be better than we fear.
But now we can see that there’s been no change in their idiocy. Apparently they’ll allow a free vote on the hunting issue if they win the next election.
Come on guys. Some of us aren’t going to vote for you but we know you’re likely to get in whatever. Don’t be idiots bringing up pointlessly divisive issues again.
And apparently the argument that there’s been too much legislative time spent on this issue no longer applies.
