Controversial MP speaks to Eurogamer.
He was the guest that no-one expected to see and yet Keith Vaz MP, Parliament’s most hostile critic of the industry, turned out last night at an event in support of gaming, claiming: “I’ve never been against games”.
Parliament Games Day, held at Portcullis House in Westminster, was organised by pressure group Gamers’ Voice to bring together politicians and the industry to promote the cultural and economic strengths of Britsoft.
Vaz, whose arrival turned heads, told Eurogamer: “I’ve never been against games. I’ve been against violent games that are able to fall into the hands of young people who are perhaps not able to understand the implications of what they’re doing.”
