Every time you think that Cameron’s Tories cannot sink any lower, something else happens. Iain Dale, one of the few remaining prominenti (or sort of prominenti) in that party who it’s possible to take seriously, is reporting this:

Tim Yeo used to [be] the Conservative Environment Spokesman. He’s given an interview to GMTV in which he seriously proposes that all domestic flights should be abolished.

Iain goes on to point out that it really is

just as well that Tim Yeo doesn’t want to attack long haul flights. After all, he would have missed out on all these junkets which he enjoyed during 2006 [click on the post to see details], not to mention the helicopter flight Mr Yeo took to visit Norfolk and other areas of the country during the General Election campaign…As one of [Dale’s] commenters has just pointed out, Mr Yeo would also have had to forgo a trip he did as golf columnist for the Financial Times – in one day, he golfed at three of Britain’s best courses in a single day courtesy of a flight on private jet company Netjets.

Cameron’s nitwit ‘green’ adviser has now endorsed Yeo’s remarks, proof positive of their remarkable stupidity.

If only there was someone, anyone, sensible to vote for other than the Tory rabble.
