I've just seen a copy of Rees-Mogg's handwritten resignation letter on Twitter. He didn't date it 25th October, he dated it "St Crispan's Day".
Excuse my language, but what a wanker.
I agree with the sentiment of this – asking the PM to pass on his resignation to the king was, while technically correct in constitutional law, is wankery in the extreme.
But please, as one who still enjoys hand-writing personal letters with a fountain pen on proper writing paper, I ask you to dissociate me from any comparison with Rees-Mogg!
