Dominic Sandbrook (whose work has itself come in for a fair amount of criticism - not least that it's rehashing other people's work without proper attribution) reviewed Mr Mogg's book. It is behind a paywall at The Times: Quote The Victorians by Jacob Rees-Mogg review — bad, boring and mind‑bogglingly banal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose to a tory, he might seem a bit liberal, but for the rest of us, he's right wing. I'm not sure I'd go with fanatic - probably a bit too pragmatice for that. A bit weird might be a better description. Or "spy", of course. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Sajid going for the hard line win over the voting membership approach. Quote Tory leadership hopeful Sajid Javid has ruled out a second referendum, a general election and revoking Article 50 if he becomes the next PM. Writing in Saturday's Daily Heil, the home secretary said another vote "would be disastrous for trust in politics". He said he planned to negotiate an amendment to the Irish backstop "directly with Ireland" to get a deal that could pass through Parliament. Having already said he personally 'would not allow' the Scots to have a referendum, he's now declared no second referendum. His tactic will be to negotiate with individual EU states. Something I think the EU have said can't happen. But we're not in the real world here, are we, we're in looking tough to win the job world. The throbbers are going to throb us right up to October.

What's the HoC equivalent of the naughty step? I imagine she'll stay on in name only, I can't imagine the Tories wanting a by-election right now, not that the NF party might get in because Maidenhead voted remain and it's a pretty nailed on Tory seat Labour were in a very distant second place last time. But I still think it's the last thing the Tories need right now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
