    Default 1984 outrage thread: Cameron's latest comment

    "For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone."

    Given that the centre-right is supposed to be about small government and personal responsibility, how do the more conservative orgahs feel about this?

    Cameron has been going on about "British values", especially in schools, for a while now. The thing is if you look at his attacks on Christian schools, it becomes clear there is nothing conservative about them. He's twisting British values to attack people of any faith that he doesn't deem to be tolerant or inclusive enough.

    It is creepy and totalitarian, even if only on a small scale for now. I don't think it's good that politicians feel they can say that sort of thing.

    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
