Unsuitable for the Tory party

Citizen Stuart follows up the story of Ex-Conservative PPC Robert Oulds who has been dismissed for having his picture taken with a variety of sporting equipment. His dismissal has something to do with the fact that the equipment or his relationship with it is inherently evil or a danger to public safety. Or, perhaps, that owners of such equipment are considered unsuitable material for such active membership of the Tory party. Or, perhaps, even people that touch such equipment are not good enough. Or, perhaps, something to do with the Internet and photographs. Who knows.

Anyhow, it turns out that Robert Oulds is the director of the anti-EU Bruges group. I hereby accuse the Tory party of deliberately expelling Mr. Oulds on the basis that his anti-EU line is not compatible with the softer Tory line on European integration.

Hey, what do you mean I'm full of crap? It makes more sense than any other reason I've read about.

If I were still a member of the party I would cut my card in half and return it to head office with a covering letter saying that I admit that I have a picture of myself holding a firearm and, consequently, am expelling myself from the party as unsuitable material.

I might join again just to do that.
