say what you want about the Conservative part in the UK, but i prefer them to conservatives in the US,
while they may be economically right wing they're fairly liberal on social issues, as this story shows
thankfully mainstream conservativism in the UK doesn't have this large fundamentalist / extreme right wing which has dragged the GOP way right of centre in the last 20 - 30 years, and which, unfortunately, has dragged the political centre ground to the right in US politics, compared to decades ago
