Guardian Unlimited Politics - Ask Aristotle: Roger Gale MP
Roger had always thought it would be something more dramatic—like a tornado to rip the house away from the basement and then a quick rolling away of the clouds so that the daylights could trap him and destroy him mercilessly.
Roger could fight this, he knew he had that option and it was as simple as refusing to go, but then the daylights would be angered at him and they would use even more dangerous methods to get him.
Roger took the first few steps cautiously but his anxiety was overwhelming and he bolted up the next few, running into Gale and nearly knocking her down.
RogerGale, MP for North Thanet in Kent, said the UK public did not need a "state-imposed" silence to express their feelings.
Mr Gale said people who agreed with him might wish to donate money to the fund to aid victims "rather than participating in an ill-thought-through endeavour to salve the consciences of some politicians who, when needed, have been found wanting".
A family from Mr Gale's constituency had been missing in Indonesia, but on Wednesday - the day of the MP's comments - it emerged they were safe and well.
