Look at that. You can see fetid cogs in his tiny brain grinding against each other, spraying his cryptoreligious, sub-Victorian horseshit propaganda across the nation's children.
If those unwealthy masses want to learn something, they can damn well learn some family values. Look at them, breeding and scrounging. Single mothers and fags — the buck of every problem in this Broken Britain stops with them. Maybe if we can get their birth rate down they'll stop rioting, get docile and let us keep the money we worked hard to earn, dammit. That's what a conservative government ought to do. Protect the interests of those which make this country great.
Apparently there are no bounds on the lack of respect I have for this corrupt party.
This speech wasn't meant for us: it was Kool-Aid for Tory voters. Pretty much the most fundamental concept in right-wing politics is the nuclear family, and this token gesture will lull their target audience into believing the Tories are fighting their corner. Obviously, the fact that it alienates unmarried and same-sex couples, as well as doing nothing to alleviate the fact that we are all going to suffer financially and in terms of our public services, will be missed entirely by the Mail/Telegraph.
The guy is the worst kind of cowardly "yes man" in the cabinet, undoubtedly so, but the irony is that this is probably one of the best PR moves (in terms of retaining core voters) that the Conservative could have hoped for. Instead of railing against them with taunts of "Victorian" or mocking religious sensibilities, perhaps the best agenda to push would be the teaching of critical thinking (essential in the age of Wiki-learning) coupled with the unbiased presenting of statistics about marriage and its correlated (or otherwise) effect on the well-being of offspring.
Oh Goddd.. how did we let these people get into power? Will we never learn?!
