That says enough about how out of touch he is.

Change is inevitable, progressives really are only trying to steer the boat by trying to establish who is best qualified to steer the boat.

If he is a religious man then he gets marked down in my book and I have no doubt he employs political expediency like all the others. Would I take him over Corbyn? All day.

[Link] Rees-Smug doesn't approve of abortion in any circumstances,that Includes, Incest,child rape etc. Not only does this rule him out of leading the Tory party it also marks him as deeply out of touch with the rest of humankind,personally I am revolted by him and his bilge.

One might vehemiently disagree with the opinion of JRM on this emotive subject but at least he has expressed his honest personal opinion. In politics in this era it is not so much as what one firmly believes in which is important but ensuring what you articulate ticks all the 'Boxes' for the appropriate people. Some might argue that his candour and honesty are to be greatly admired (Irrespective of his views), others that it is reckless politically and political 'Suicide'.

Gets us somewhere that doesn't it. One thing that unites the extremes of political positions on both the right and the left is their willingness to be disgusted by the opinion of their opposites.

Is a child of incest or rape more deserving of being aborted? We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

Edited by Willo (07 Sep 2017 1.55pm) Wait... what? So, express some extremely controversial views, get points for honesty? His views aren't just pretty oout of touch to the wider electorate, they're pretty extreme even within the Conservative Party. Perhaps he'd be more at home in the fundamentalist right of the US Republican party?
