On his profile he looks to be a nice person - we can all make mistakes the important thing is to learn from them...

Personally I was disgusted, no matter what his own, or his party's stance is on E.U. membership, when he posted on here that he had no problem with a referendum, mentioning democracy, then voted against it.
The spark that made that disgust turn into a nuclear explosion, was the fact that literally minutes after the vote result was announced in the Commons, Graham was on Twitter, smugly tweeting that the result was a 'Tory disaster'.
No mention how, because of how he chose to vote, and despite what he said, the result was a disaster for everyone.
A disaster for democracy.
A disater for Britain.
A disaster for the constituents of Hyndburns' rights.
