Wouldn't it be nice if each and every MP and Prospective Parliamentary Candidate in the General Election could be made to write an essay on what they understand by "Politics of Principle" and how it relates to them?
Marks out a 100 would be awarded.
Let me explain that "principle" is not the same as "principal" and that it is important to appear to know what this means and to spell it correctly.
Perhaps I should make the question easier and break it down as they must all be scratching their heads and sucking their pens.
1. What do you understand by principle? (25 marks)
2. Why do you think is the purpose of having principles? (25 marks)
3. Do you understand what it means to act on a point of principle? (13 marks for a NO answer, 12 marks for a YES answer)
4. Give an example (or examples if you can think of more than one) when you have acted on principle. If you have never acted on principle, give a hypothetical situation where you might be prepared to do so. (25 marks)
CONSERVATIVE PARTY REFUSE TO ANSWER WHEN QUESTIONED WHAT ITS PRINCIPLES ARE!
Did the Tories once have principles but have now lost them?
Or did they never have them at all?
If they had them, where were they kept? I think we should be told.
