George's flag in their bio that I found on Twitter, who is now comparing Robert Kenyon to Robert Jenrick.

who's also in reform, and saying, you are now in the same parties as refugees welcome Jenrick.

She's quoting Robert Jenrick from many years ago, welcoming Afghan refugees as part of the national project.

In other words, her insult is not even about the creepy language.

It's not even about the fact he sounds utterly gross.

It's about the fact that if it is true he didn't vote for Brexit, then she, this person, is putting him in the same camp essentially as a Remainer

Or as a partner in reform, Robert Jenrick.

And so suddenly you've got, you understand the fire that reform is starting to fight on both sides.

Of course, they're not going to apologise for him sort of sounding like an absolute eejit compared to women.

That's not really reform style.

But

What do they do about the Brexit thing?

Do they kind of have to let that go as well and say, oh, he's just normal.

You know, it's absolutely normal.

And it is normal.

You know, it's fine to have different opinions before you go into politics.

As soon as you post them, you are already committing to being public with those views, to an open forum in which anyone at any point can take them and hurl them back in your face.

And frankly, that's what people on all sides of the political divide are doing to him now.

Well, can I throw in, it's not, I mean, it was around the same time that Cameron stood up in the Commons and said to one of the front benches opposite, calm down, dear.

And that was considered so patronising, so horrific, so condescending.
