Being bullied is ‘snowflake-y’ & Brexit benefit doesn’t cut it – guess who said this?

It was of course Jacob Rees-Mogg who was talking more nonsense than usual!

To kick it off he seemed to indicate that the numerous allegations of bullying by Dominic Raab could be ‘snowflake-y.’

“I think we’ve got to be slightly careful about the bullying allegations,” he told Sky News. “We mustn’t be too snowflakey about it. People need to be able to say this job has not been done well enough and needs to be done better.”

Difficult

Mr Rees-Mogg said bullying was “very difficult line to judge” and “not a straightforward issue in most cases”.

Mogg went on: “Is it reasonable to demand from senior and well-paid professionals a level of good service? And then you have to judge whether that line has been overstepped. But I do worry we’re getting a bit snowflakey about this.”

Dave Penman, general secretary of the FDA union, which represents senior officials, accused him of “trivialising bullying”, saying: “Even by Rees-Mogg’s standards this is outrageous”.

Rees-Mogg implies that two-dozen allegations of bullying against Raab may be "snowflake-y" and that bullying is a "tough line to judge".

Not sure Priti Patel is the best example. The person tasked with making that judgement decided she HAD crossed that line and was ignored. ~AA pic.twitter.com/MuuOdqjz5W

So Rees-Mogg cites not having to pay "Vnuk" insurance on lawn mowers 🤡

That's surely up there with his unbridled joy at being able to have different road signage in the Dartford Tunnel
