Alternative title: Tory asshole tests the depths of assholery
The Conservative MP Sir Christopher Chope – the politician widely condemned for objecting to a bill to outlaw upskirting – has blocked legislation designed to protect children from female genital mutilation (FGM).
The 71 year-old MP for Christchurch was heavily criticised for obstructing the legislation on Friday, and was called an “embarrassment to your party and humanity” by leading anti-FGM campaigner Nimco Ali.
Conservatives.
Tories should de-select him
Oh he is really starting to piss me off now.
Sir Christopher does not believe private members’ bills are the proper way to amend legislation because he does not think they receive proper scrutiny.
He has previously argued that it is the government’s job to introduce its own FGM bill.
Yet the government had supported the proposed legislation, keen to see it pass as a private member’s bill. Government whips reportedly held conversations with Sir Christopher in an effort to persuade him to drop his objections.
Zac Goldsmith questioned his fellow Tory MP’s motivations, asking on Twitter: “If he is acting on principle, as he wants people to believe, why does he often allow Bills put forward by his friends to pass through unchallenged?”
Sir Christopher did not object to private members’ bills sponsored by fellow Tory MP Peter Bone in the Commons this afternoon.
“This makes it even more shocking that he was given a knighthood by Theresa May last year."

Disgusting sack of shit.
