Fuck me. I know he's a twat, but support for Anne Marie Waters? As it says somewhere on Twitter:

Bloody R4!  That's several times today you've informed me that Farridge (that's the excellent Brummie pronunciation of his name) has said something.  Who cares?
Oh, of course, you do.  You're the BBC. 
Surely you didn't sent someone to a venue to listen to him, did you?
Listen BBC.  No one cares.  Probably not even his ex BNP Lite Ukip members.
Give up, for heaven's sake.

The BBC News is merely an entertainment organisation now.  "News-a-tainment" if you will.

It's almost as full of "click-bait" as the Mail online.  Farage and Katie Hopkins are used for this purpose.

The online BBC news channel is bordering on sickening, the way they mix stories of mass murder in Syria with Mary Berry's new recipes..etc.

What makes it worse is when they refer to Russian news channels as "State Sponsored Broadcaster".... and fail to see any irony.
Some people say I'm self-obsessed but that's enough about them.

I object to his inclusion in this thread on the basis that blocking the 'upskirting' ban is reprehensible and beyond understanding. we need another thread where he can fuck off to and die.

His wiki preview page might not be all his own work:

Sir Christopher Robert Chope OBE MP (born 19 May 1947) is an utter twat and absolute muppet with no conscience whatsoever. His best friend is Neil S Walker ...

(I think it's been edited back now, chiz)

ETA: This one survived the edit though:
Quote
On 15 June 2018 Chope blocked the passage of a private member's bill that would have made upskirting a specific offence by crying "object" in the House of Commons, which drew immediate criticism from fellow MPs.[23]. He was, however, too busy trying to get an angle up PM Teresa May's skirt to care much about his colleague's ire.

TBF, Chope's issue seems to be private members bills rather than looking up women's skirts (does it apply to kilts, I hope not, that's another hobby off the list). He's an unhealthy reminder that the Tory party is choked with these slightly barmy old folks who seem to have failed to successfully exit previous decades.

Personally, I'm not keen on defining laws for every specific offence. Voyeurism is already on the statute books. Otherwise, you get into the legal hinterlands, but your honour, it says skirt and it was clearly a dress. Etc. Voting against legislation isn't necessarily the same as approving of the activity.

Anyway, if you can 18 months suspended for GBH, I suspect you've have to look up a lot of skirts to get significant time at HM's pleasure.

I'd have slightly more sympathy if Chope weren't a right-winger of the rabid kind, whose ire seems to be most raised by progressive bills. And while I broadly agree with your point about the creation of specific new criminal offences, wasn't the impetus for the bill the fact that the police claimed to be unable to prosecute incidences as the victims were wearing underwear and therefore the images weren't technically obscene?

I'm not denying Chope is bonkers. He quite probably is. They usually are, the Conservative party in particular seems to have no shortage of them. (Ok, I just googled, he does tick all the boxes, and adds a few more, we're going to need a bigger checklist.) I'm not entirely sure where Christchurch is, but we should take the precaution of bombing it out of existence. Sorry chaps, but it's for your own good, some of you are voting for him.

That said, I'm not convinced the best way to fix existing broken legislation is by creating more legislation.

It also says something about the archaic nature of our legislature. The rules Chope (and others, notably Rees Mogg) exploit, evolved in a time before we had a strong party system, when most bills were private members bills. The farce of people having to stay up all night to be first in the queue to promote a bill, only to see it talked out or otherwise scuppered is a joke. There has to be a better way of getting suggestions from ordinary MPs onto the statute book without everything having to come from the civil service.

In the light of recent events it seems that objections to bills being passed without debate are a tad selective.

He got 70% of the vote. I am pretty sure the remaining 30% of the Christchurch constituency will sacrifice themselves to a fiery death and welcome the friendly bombs that fall.

Christchurch is my David's hometown. It's just east of Bournemouth, on the Dorset1 coast. It is populated by folk like David's Dad: ancient conservatives who supported UKIP until it fizzled out and are staunch Brexiteers.

There are a few dicks like Chode and the equally odious Philip Davies who take great delight on talking out private member's bills because "democracy".  Or possibly just cuntiness.

I don't think the level of cuntiness is debatable for Philip Davies (it's absolute). Him, however, I already knew about. Sir Chode-hole is a new one for me. I think they may be manufacturing them in some weird Willy Wonka factory, in goes pulped copies of the Daily Mail, and eventually out pop these loathsome, greased extra-sized homunculi spluttering 'gays! women! abortion! europe!'

OK, I don't do party politics, but I do find it hard to believe people vote en masse for individuals like these. Then I realise that people really do adhere to these peculiar reactionary views. Not in small numbers, there's lots of them. Which makes me sad and a feel a bit weird, I can't honestly get my head around much of what they believe in. if there was a Venn diagram of my beliefs and theirs, we'd have to draw circles on different sheets of paper. Then someone would have take my sheet, get on a plane and fly to the other side of the planet. Where there's a rocket pad. At which point he'd hand it to the waiting astronaut and she'd take it and clamber into the pilots seat. The rocket would launch into space and several month later arrive in the orbit of Saturn. Where's there's a wormhole to a very, very distance star, so impossibly distant that it takes the light a million years to reach earth. She'd toss it in and it would be whisked away to that very, very distant star.

That's really an accurate depiction of how much our beliefs overlap.

Chope used to be my MP when he was first elected. He got into parliament for Southampton Itchen, a safe Labour seat, when the sitting MP moved over to the Social Democrats. That split the left-of-centre vote and let the Tory in.
He did get kicked out of Southampton after two terms, but I suspect he will be a fixture in Christchurch until he retires or we get PR.

Seems that the Chode apologists who claim "he does this with all private member's bills" are being a tad disingenuous.  Because Chode himself has sponsored no fewer than forty-seven, usually on the subject of making the NHS not-free.  This is supremely twatty on its own demerit.

Get real dad - what an ignorant and thoughtless comment. Upskirting can quite easily happen even when women dress conservatively... but the responsibility still lies with the woman? This is for sure one of the top 3 stupidest comments you’ve ever made. #EngageBrainAndReassess
