Lee Anderson tells us what the Conservative Party will stand on at the next election

I despise the "culture" which Lee Anderson seems to advocate.

He certainly knows what will win some people over vampirequeen, but is this the cleverest answer to someone when asked what platform the Tories will stand on at the next election?
