The New Conservatives

The British Conservative Party has suspended one if its candidates in Scotland after he voiced support for racism and homophobia. Good for Tories. When I lived in Britain in the late 1980s, quite a few Tory politicians—especially at local level—were openly racist and homophobic. It makes me happy to see that the party has come a long way since and now distance itself from such ideas. Too bad it hasn’t done the same in the European Parliament.
