blue on blue, tory on tory infighting we have seen since the big brexit battles in parliament to me. douglas ross is the elected leader of the scottish tories, although he stood unopposed, so may be elected is pushing it slightly, but he is leader of the scottish conservative party. he has backing of the vast majority of scottish tory msps in saying that boris johnson should resign. jacob rees mogg was on newsnight last night saying he thinks douglas ross is a lightweight figure and that his opinion isn t all that important, which is, you know, aside from wanting to protect the prime minister, which you could maybe understand from some cabinet ministers at this stage when there is that operation savejohnson that seems to be going on. it also creates this almighty schism between edinburgh and london, between different parts of the conservative party. and although it might be sensible forjacob rees mogg just now to defend the prime minister, i just also say it is worth thinking
