I was impressed by a politician making such an explict stand.
I was suprised it was a Conservative but that's proabaly as much do with my ignroance of his voting record and my sterotyped view of the party.
So as a normally anti-Tory, pro-civil liberties friend I'm left disconcerted by agreeing with a Conservative (ex)MP and hoping someone in power will take the (not subtle) hint.
Given the (non)impact of the Iraq war resignations, I'm sure something will happen to minimise the point being made here. Sadly, I don't expect much (if anything) will change but if nothing's ever said then there's no reason it'll improve. It's in the hope of making a difference, I vote, occasionaly write to my MP and then wonder why I bother.
