Jacob Rees-Mogg said this about Boris Johnson – only 7 replies you need
Boris Johnson used his resignation speech in the House of Commons to tell MPs that it’s ‘not too late to save Brexit’.
The only way we know Boris Johnson isn't the actual devil is that the devil's in the details and Johnson's never been anywhere near any of those.

And here’s what everyone else told Jacob Rees-Mogg.

In the warped minds of Brexit fanatics, Boris is their Churchill.
In the eyes of the rest of the world, he is a clown.https://t.co/9kVDWvNxby

Statesmen don’t shit the bed for attention when things aren’t going their way.
You’re confusing “statesman” with “someone who is a bit posh” again.

No, the speech of someone motivated purely by self-interest who gave up after it all got a bit difficult.

Case in point: This is one posh man congratulating another posh man for calling for Brexit to be much more damaging to ordinary people than it already is. Yet ordinary people are retweeting it. Strange times.https://t.co/q5Nktu2RUT

Separate but related …
I still can't see Jacob Rees-Mogg on TV without remembering he was the Tories' general election candidate for Glenrothes in 1997 and that I witnessed him becoming flustered outside the bus station because some 12-year-olds told him John Major was a 'big fanny'.
