Although what is really worrying is his lack of concern over censorship. He’d rather focus on banning violence in games, rather than sorting out ways to protect children – which is actually a valid cause. Also his alignment with the tabloids such as the Mail is irritating. Seems to me like Vaz is using videogames as a ‘hardline’ policy to appeal to the middle-class voters who might otherwise see Labour and himself as weak when compared to the Tory opposition.

He just said that violent people choose violent games, therefore video games that include violence are evil. I hate it when people make this mistake. He has decided that the effect is the cause and the cause is the effect because it strengthens his position.
