My Catholic principles will self destruct after one reading

A friend tells me of a Catholic MP and minister who told her he will vote against the government for the second reading of its new embryology bill but will vote with the government at its final reading.

The MP did not tell her if this was part of Gordon Brown's deal to allow Catholics in the government to go against collective responsibility and the party line but you have to wonder.

So it seems our representatives can have their cake and eat it. No problem guys you can still be part of a government which is slowly but surely undermining much of the nation's Judaeo Christian heritage which has underpinned our moral life, social ecology and freedoms.

One day you won't be in government - you might be with the rest of us reaping the whirlwind.

Since when did your Catholic Faith become based on moveable principles?
