Jacob Rees-Mogg turning to readers of The Sun to write to him with examples of EU laws they would like to see repealed is simultaneously one of the funniest and saddest things I’ve seen in a while. Can you imagine opening that mailbag?

#brexit as pure performance art… invoking Kitchener, Reagan, and the barnacle encrusted ship of state… where @Jacob_Rees_Mogg promises Sun readers a “real #Brexit bonus in their pockets every day”. Say it often enough and it becomes true. https://t.co/6dKA27MWQW pic.twitter.com/7llnFutzrk

2018: "Hard Brexit now we can finally implement our great ideas!"

Welcome to the Sunlit Uplands. No no, we actually arrived here a few years ago. My name’s Jacob. My job’s to try and make the Sunlit Uplands seem a bit less shit. Yes, yes, it *is* quite strange, when you think about it. https://t.co/nNUfkKFh1b

The psychosis of the English ruling class in full effect here: raging at ghosts, full of idiot nostalgia. The reference to Kitchener is the nadir pic.twitter.com/f2j3pTOF2Y

This is "chaff". The appearance of productivity not productivity itself. All he'll get is letters about "Euromyths" – ones that were mostly made up by his current boss when he was a lazy Brussels correspondent… oh and complaints about elf and safety… that save lives pic.twitter.com/Q25lb2oO6x
