Simply 47 things that Jacob Rees-Mogg looks like

Face like a jellyfish shocked by its own reflection but coming to terms with its future given the fact it really was born with that face.

Like a worn soap-on-a-rope of Hitler.

Like the softening cucumber forgotten in the vegetable drawer. Like a mildewed engraving. Like a strip of wallpaper peeling off the wall of a damp hallway in an abandoned building. Like a moth-eaten school tie in the bottom of the dressing-up box. https://t.co/18zHcsxwoi

Like a tasered plum. Like a clenched fart. Like a plasticine weapon. Like a poorly-stretched testicle. Like a poulterer's error. https://t.co/jxNoCNPp1b

Like a stopped pocketwatch hanging – limply – from the lapel of a Victorian childkiller.

Like a forlorn fir tree. Like a cracked bicycle pump. Like a doused gas lamp. Like a putrid plume. Like snarled sellotape. Like a gossamer millipede. Like a phantom well. I like this game.

Face like a children’s party entertainer who has just been told he can’t come in because he’ll scare the kids.

Not everyone approved though. Specifically, this person who took issue after Tracey Thorn liked it.
Please @tracey_thorn – why are you liking this tweet? Like you I detest his politics, please don’t play the same game of laughing at looks, etc. We are all better than this
— Jane Ingham (Nolan) (@janiejones123) November 29, 2018
And her response speaks for us all.
I am liking it because these are examples of brilliant comic writing, an art form I will always celebrate. If we’re no longer allowed to laugh we are utterly fucked.

The “abandoned B road” is a line of beauty. Keep returning to laugh about it at odd moments.
