Tory MP loses whip over VAX comments

I don't agree with him but I am open minded enough to listen, and science by it's very definition is designed to be challenged. Indeed, blind acceptance of science is itself very unscientific. Who knows whether there is much truth in what he is saying but I think its fair to say it.

Comparing anything to the Holocaust, even vis a third person, is stupid and politically naive though.

I'd argue that ignoring decades and centuries of scientific progress, and the millions of scientists who have written millions of papers in favour of something what I read on the internet is blind acceptance.
