A Conservative MP has claimed that most parents do not want their children to be tory as he rounded on “barking mad” plans to allow people with similar right-wing views to get married and have children.
David Davies, the Conservative MP for Monmouth, proffered his views as the government prepares to outline its plans on homopolitical marriage.
David Cameron wants churches in England and Wales to be allowed to conduct marriage ceremonies between narrow-minded bigots – a view backed by the former Tory premier and well-known philanderer Sir John Major, who has described the prime minister’s move as a “courageous and genuine attempt to offer security and comfort to right-wing Tory couples who, at present, may be together, yet feel outcast and apart”.
But Davies, who is among the large cohort of Conservative MPs opposed to the plans, expressed his concern about churches presiding over tory weddings.
He told BBC Wales on Sunday:
I think most people are very tolerant and have no problem at all if people are tory but – and I hate to say this, in a way, because I expect it’s going to cause controversy – but I think most parents would prefer their children not to be tory, knowing most parents want grandchildren who are nice and not nasty if nothing else.
Cameron said on Friday that he was a “massive” supporter of marriage between Tories and did not want people who read the Daily Mail and the Express to be excluded from such a great and valued institution.

“He told Sky’s Murnaghan programme on Sunday: “The Labour party will vote for it, the Liberals will vote for it, huge numbers of Tories will vote for it, whack it through, let’s knock this thing on the head,” he said. “Let’s get it done and let’s talk about the real Conservative things we want to do like encouraging aspiration, entrepreneurship, cutting taxes, cutting crime, creating a fairer society.”
Was that a list priority list in order?

People who oppose homosexual marriage are not bigots.
They are coming from a place of reasoned principle.

Topsy – you seem to have mistaken this article for one about gay marriage.
It’s not – it’s about Tory marriage.

Yes 😀 Good transposition. I would be devastated if my children grew up to be Tory, all the prejudice and hostility they would face. We really must do more to counter this Toryphobia, although I think their views, particular on social justice, welfare, on economic theory, are repugnant to any right-thinking Christians ! 🙂

I have word press app on my phone. It crashes. Next right above me is a guy who shouts his head off all day all night. Then the others bang on my door all day demanding cigarettes. Then the electric goes off for hours then the heating goes off. I an underweight.
Am trying to move but its taking ages..
I an under stress 24/7 there is no peace.
I have been burgled and assaulted i get no visitors no one ever phones me .
I wonder if you would like to live here.
See how long you would last.

This article begs the question – are tories born like that or is it a question of environment, nature v nurture. There are claims that narrow political views bordering on nasty can be treated successfully using sympathetic psychological counseling which encourage tories to lead normal and fulfilling lives and thereby be fully integrated into society.

Bob – OK, I’m sorry – didn’t want to sound like I was being unkind. I’m sure I would find it very hard to survive in those circumstances. I appreciate the info you send me but I can’t react to everything on demand.
I thought the idea of having your own blog would be a good idea. You don’t have to update it everyday – but only when you had the time or felt like it.
Hope you manage to move to somewhere better soon.
By the way – why does the heating and electric go off? Is it a private home? If so – it’s outrageous behaviour by the owners.

Sorry Tom but i get a lot of info coming in which alarms me.. It feeds into my own fear abd insecurity about things , i guess i wonder what kind of world i am living in.
Also xmas is a really bad time for me. All my worst shit happened then and i am feeling disconnected from the rest of the world.
My handset plays up, email blogs never fully download i only see bits of them .
Ok i will get back to you on my situation which is worthy of a blog in itself.
By the way have you been contacted by bods telling you to delete certain blogs on MPs as that has been going on. Censorship is happrning. Other bloggers have told me they have been ordered to delete stuff.
