How Does The Conservative Party Attract Such People?

Enough has been said in detail about this insensitive and sickening stunt and credit to the Conservative Party hierarchy for acting as swiftly as they did. It does make one wonder though, given previous incidents (esp note the Party Animals section in the Daily Mail article linked above), how the Conservatives attract such young people. Indeed, one of their members told the Daily Mail:

'Young Tories need to understand that Conservative Future is not some merry drinking club for a bunch of idiots.'

And to be fair, I know of one or two Young Conservatives who are very decent people, such as Tim Roll-Pickering, plus no Party is immune from its problem members, but it does look like the Conservatives might need to look at what sort of people they are attracting amongst the young, esp girls like Flick Cox who said:

'I am quite glad about that, I would hate to have to end our friendship when I become an MP because you had pulled a Prince Harry!!!.'

How cynical, crass, stupid, and arrogant. One things for sure, she will never be an MP as a result of this! No Party would want her and this would always be dragged up somewhere if she even tried!
