Most realise Chope is a nutball, especially after he [went out of his way](https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/tory-mp-sir-christopher-chope-12719924) to derail “upskirt” photography legislation.
But did you know he was enough of a crackpot to dally with sub-Ickean [conspiracy toting](https://archive.ph/jPri9#selection-881.124-881.407) climate denying anti-EU “news” organisation [UK Column](https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Brian_Gerrish)?
In fact, he actually promotes it [on his website](https://www.chrischope.com/news/chris-featured-uk-column-news).
Waiting for his “due process” defenders to come out for this weirdo.
He is the stubborn prion protein in parliament’s brain. This man makes the Commons especially dysfunctional.
