Anna Soubry

I am most grateful to Amber Rudd for reminding me to choose my language carefully when talking about Anna Soubry. 

A few weeks ago, I had included the saintly Anna in my draft Christmas Irritant List.  However, that was before she moved beyond the pale.

So, I have, indeed, reflected carefully and concluded that she has graduated from the preposterous blustering windbag, who was so much an object of amusement, to a self-righteous harridan whose views, sincerely held or otherwise, have no place in a party committed to enacting the result of the EU referendum.

I hope these words are carefully chosen enough?
