Peter Lilley MP, former cabinet minister and representative of various parts of Hertfordshire depending on who is voting Tory at the time, has shown his true blue colours again.
He has been throwing cold water on the climate change bill, the hard fought effort that is the only serious attempt at the issue we have seen from Parliament.
But hold on, you cry, aren't the Tories supposed to be all green now? Vote Blue Go Green?
Er... no.
Like his party leader, when the going gets tough, this Tory reverts to type. It's fine to use billions of our money to bail out the greedy banks, but when it comes to the future of life on Earth? Not interested thanks.
