Jacob Rees-Mogg is a second tier 18th century politician who failed to oust Theresa May and then snipes nonsense from the sidelines. He isn’t greatly respected. https://t.co/nvyoGbPHui

Please tell me you know that's a parody Ken Clarke account.

TBF Mark Carney is a first tier central banker and back in the day Ken Clarke was a first tier politician. Rees-Mogg isn't a first or even a second tier anything.

And I'm a fourth tier commentator

It's difficult to tell apart parody and real accounts these days. (In general, not referring to Ken Clarke specifically).

A case of 'If he didn't say that, he damned well should have done!'

The_Taxman · November 2018

I have started to wonder if Jacob Rees-Mogg is going to be a footnote in political history rather sooner than many expect. He does represent a marginal seat and I fail to see how he could hang on against a co-ordinated campaign to get him out rather like Chris Patten in Bath in 1992. Though the Bath campaign benefited from the LD being challenger rather than the Labour party in his seat, still, he is such an unlikeable chap I could see his defeat being a moment of delight even if Labour failed to win in any election night broadcast.

There are some things that one might think but that one ought to be too polite to say. Lots of things about Rees-Mogg fall into that category.

Rees-Joke and Johnson are both looking surprisingly vulnerable... a lot of money will be spent to get them out, and I rather think that CCHQ might not be very worried about that

If come the time, it looks at all likely that Johnson would lose I wouldn't be surprised if he resigned beforehand 'to pursue other projects'. He couldn't take the humiliation, and undisguised glee across the nation.

I think a Boris Johnson defeat would see scenes reminiscent of David Mellor Vs. James Goldsmith in 1997! Johnson might be liked by a dwindling band of Leavers but he is despised by everybody else. Mind you the nation might get a cathartic feeling of being able to move on if he was humiliated in an election.

Ah. I read a newspaper article recently that mis-wrote "to the manor born" as "to the manner born" and, if we assume that Rees-Mogg made a similar homophonical mix-up in his youth, hearing "manors make the man" where "manners make the man" was intended then it would explain much. Simple mistake!

I don't understand why the Government has managed to get itself hung up on the question about whether the deal is better or worse economically than staying in the EU. As long as the difference isn't huge, they should be playing up the trade off on the other differences ie. freedom of movement, no more 'ever closer union', money, etc etc

After all, it's not anything they didn't argue during the referendum itself.

BoJo will be gutted to be overlooked, given he spent so long stage-managing his.
Rushing out the door after Davis shouting "wait for me..." wasn't a good look.

Not even with a photo of the letter-signing? Damn!

All setting the stage for whatever TM intends to do if and when the deal option goes down.

Torygraph looks like the last paper holding out against May's Deal on the brexit side.

Is there an actual amendment wording available? The words in that tweet are surely far too vague to be the actual amendment.

You do have to wonder if the last two days has seen ERG implode and open the door to Norway or remain

They need to vote for TM deal or it is all over for them.

I will not shed a tear. I want my party back

They have. It's over imho. Just a matter of going through all the steps.

The ultra loons and 18th century panjandrums have blown their own project up.

If they are very very lucky they will get Norway out of this.

If May cannot convince her own party that it is a good deal, then why should other parties believe her?

Andrea Leadsom apparently sent a letter to all her constituents affirming the deal

Maybe evidence of the pressure constituency chairman are under to support TM

Even effect of Daily Mail in the heartlands
