Strip MP Christopher Chope of his knighthood
Christopher Chope represents the worst of British politics. In light of his decision to block laws to protect women from upskirting photographs, blocking a ban on live animals in circuses, and blocking a law to protect police dogs and horses, Christopher Chope should be stripped of his knighthood.
