The man is disgusting.

WTF is wrong with him!
Just read this - glad you started a thread as I'm fuming.
What are his objections to a law which helps to protect girls at risk of FGM? I don't understand. He's a sick bastard.

(In case anyone is tempted to believe he has a principled objection to Private Member’s Bills, please note that once again he did NOT object to those put forward by his friends.)

Chope is a horrible example of an MP.

His local party need to seriously look at deselecting him

I came to post this exact thing, what the fuck is wrong with that cretin?

His email address is [email protected]

In case you want to register your disgust with him.

How on earth does he keep getting elected? Surely, surely!, his constituents will now find it unconscionable to vote for him ever again.

Absolutely abhorrent man. An example of everything that is wrong with our political class.

He's an odious creature

Well let’s hope it’s another reason for him to be deselected.

He’s an utter disgrace.

"His local party need to seriously look at deselecting him..."

He's standing down at the next election. Let joy be unconfined, etc.

Until then, He's MP for Christchurch, oldest electorate on the planet, where the local council has decided to save money by removing all rubbish bins, replacing them with signs telling people to take it home.

Him again. The upskirting enabler. The one who claims "Oh but procedural" any time he suspects a proposed bill might interfere with men's rights to do whatever the fuck they want, to women and girls, who clearly deserve it , because they keep being female at poor hapless men. Revolting man.

It’s a lie anyway because he nods through his mates bills.

He's standing down at the next election Going before he's pushed?

He's standing down at the next election Going before he's pushed?

Not in Christchurch. The old dears in the care homes and the Sunseeker* Set love him.

May gave him his 'Now Bugger Off' Knighthood in the new year.

Comments are good....bar one from Dorset.

How on earth does he keep getting elected?

Because people will vote for a guinea pig if wears the correct coloured rosette.

i cannot believe that kind of behaviour wouldn't loose him his position but ive read he's resigning. what an odious creature.

i think he sees the legislative process as some sort of procedural game, like a school debating society.

• How on earth does he keep getting elected?

"Pig's Badder on a stick" was the original quote.

In Christchurch, there will be plenty who think he's a bit pinko. They still have a ducking stool, and the councill that refuses to fund refuse bins recently paid to restore the stocks, next to the bear baiting post.

I had no idea it was a quote, or I'd have quoted it correctly and in quote marks. There was I thinking I had made incisive political commentary and someone had got there before me.

And I mis-typed "Pig's Bladder"

Although in Chope's case, I think pneumatic offal would be an improvement.

I can see Chope's point and I think he or someone like him is necessary if we are to have good laws.

He objects when a topic is snuck in to a government sponsored piece of legislation that has gone through a rigorous process of committees and green papers and debates. The private members' bill invariably jumps on the back of the government's bill, without debate. His position is simply this:

Chope, who has argued his aim is to prevent badly thought-out legislation, said he had not been objecting to the substance of the issue, but wanted to see all legislation properly debated.

Amen to that. There should be a proper debate, consultation andd scrutiny. As someone with direct experience of some god-awful laws that went through 'on the nod' because they were popular at Party Conferences but hadn't been thought through, I think that Chope or someone like him is vital.
