It’s easy for Mogg calling from the wings, to say the government needs to show more backbone in negotiations.
It’s not a question of being a hard negotiator when everyone knows there’s no leverage in the negotiation.
There are literally no cards to be played. It would almost be funny if he did get into the hot seat, the second unelected PM in a row, and watch him crumple like a cheap packet of crisps.
I suspect he wouldn’t be stupid enough to go for leadership, though, he’s probably got some sense of self preservation and is quite comfortable and happy heckling from the side lines, a bit like corbyn.
It’s easy to shout about anything when you’re not really accountable.
