It's interesting that the Tory party set their stall out on this one - had it derailed by one of their own MP's - yet he seems unlikely to face censure, other than being hounded on social media. That I really don't understand.

Bigger picture - the arcane and ancient rules of parliament that allow this kind of nonsense to happen need to be reformed; a bill that has cross-party and public support should not be subject to the whims of one MP.

Clearly, he's a man of principle who represents the interests of his constituents.

Looking at £3bn to refurbish HoP, move it to Nottingham and sell the land to some oil rich country.

He is simply trying to prevent bad, ill thought through legislation being implemented. He wants proper parliamentary scrutiny to ensure that.

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.
