(well, having said that, Jacob Rees Mogg would be worse). He is dishonest, amoral and totally lacking in principles; moreover, despite coming from a very cosmopolitan background, he is very xenophobic, or at any rate panders to xenophobia. Both Cameron and now May have run scared of him, because he is capable of leading a successful revolt against any leader who thwarts, let alone sacks, him. At the moment, he almost seems to be daring May to sack him, and give him an excuse for a leadership challenge.
