@statsguy Touché, although I suspect that while Patel, Francois & co are backbenchers, the current leadership aren't yet quite that far right.
I did use "more" with some consideration...
@statsguy Braverman, obvs., being a serious thorn to my point. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@nullifidian I have a mole in the Home Office who's worked with both Braverman and Patel.
The verdict is that Braverman is a much nicer person to work with than Patel, who is a deeply unpleasant person.
However, Braverman is even more bonkers than Patel. And my mole was keen to point out that Patel is still very bonkers.
@statsguy It's nice to know we have such qualified professionals with no concerning character flaws at the top of government.
@nullifidian I'm sceptical about the idea of the leadership capitulating to the more fascist elements. What if the leadership *are* the more fascist elements?
