Another Tory MP has followed the intrepid Nadine Dorries in warning
David Cameron that he is in danger of the sack. David Davies, MP for
Monmouth (not to be confused with the better known former minister David
Davis), has told his local newspaper, the South Wales Argus: "David
Cameron needs to change his tack very rapidly, otherwise he's not going
to be in position for very long."
He also wrote a letter for publication in the same paper that said:
"May I also offer my apologies to those who feel the Conservative-led
Coalition has let them down. I must acknowledge there has been
incompetence at the highest levels of government over the last few
months in a number of departments.
"Meanwhile, there has been an
emphasis on issues such as gay marriage and reform of the House of
Lords, at the expense of explaining the financial situation; a failure
to deport dangerous terrorists because of concerns about human rights;
and an apparent unwillingness to listen to the concerns of electors."
Far
be it from me to fight David Cameron's corner for him, but he has
hardly put an "emphasis" on gay marriage. He defended his belief in it
in his speech to the annual party conference in October, and in April he
told church leaders that he did not want to fall out with them over it.
If he has said anything else about it in public in the past 12 months, I
confess I missed it.
Mr Davies, on the other hand, has nothing on
the home page of his website about the economy, but a whole page of the
site is devoted to explaining his opposition to gay marriage. Which
just goes to show that the people most obsessed by gay marriage are
those who oppose it.
The Independent's diary.
Worth reprinting in full.
David Cameron has spoken twice about gay marriage in the last seven months.
David Davies's website - and the touching photo of him above - suggests he is a totally bonkers closet total gaylord.
