This sounds like a limp apology to me. A man who, along with Philip Davies is a known opponent of any social change for the better. But as long as we have the iniquitous system of "safe seats" they'll keep getting re-elected. These right wing dinosaurs are the people behind Brexit, they want more freedom to be able to perpetrate more outrages like this. On Brexit it is clear that there has been a sea change in attitudes. Time for another vote before we do something so bottomlessly stupid.

He, and Philip Davies also talked out a bill that would have controlled hospital parking charges.

like I say, too old, unfit for office as an MP.

I still don't see what age has to do with it - you can be a bigoted at any age. (I did not type 'dude.')

true, and it isn't restricted to The Conservative Party either.

He's a Tory, what more can I say.
