Tory MP ‘plays air guitar’ as forces cuts are announced

From the Mirror:

“A TORY MP was slammed for playing air guitar in the Commons yesterday while Defence Secretary Liam Fox defended sacking 11,000 troops.”

“Weaver Vale’s Graham Evans strummed a rolled-up copy of the Parliamentary order paper as Dr Fox was quizzed on job losses announced in the Strategic Defence Review – then admitted more could follow.”

“There was fury after footage of Mr Evans plucking behind Dr Fox’s head surfaced on the internet.”
