Jacob Rees-Mogg has decided he likes Theresa May’s Brexit deal after all – the only 8 responses you need
Arch Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg, one of the fiercest critics of Theresa May’s deal to leave the EU, has decided that he is prepared to support it after all.
The choice seems to be Mrs May’s deal or no Brexit.https://t.co/GggHZ7NEv5

Rees-Mogg’s reasoning appears to be that it’s either May’s deal or no Brexit at all. Except how he squares his new-found support with what he has previously said about her proposed deal remains to be seen.

Rees-Mogg wishes to vote again (for a third time) because the information he has access to and the circumstances have changed and he’s changed his mind. Why is this not an arguement for also putting the final deal to a public vote to assess if they agree with his change of mind? https://t.co/R1ZgKga0CM

Seeing as you have said May's deal will make us a "slave state", will you now be adding your name to the #RevokeArticle50 petition? https://t.co/e5kaG9aFRh

Gosh. Jacob Rees-Mogg wants to VOTE AGAIN because … wait for it … he has changed his mind about the best way forward. But it's only 650 politicians who are allowed to change their minds. Not 65 million other British people. #GrandWizard #RevokeArticle50 https://t.co/RS53q3Qnft

Interesting to see Jacob Rees-Mogg coming out for Theresa May’s deal though he’s going to have to answer to people who said it’s a worse deal than staying in like Jacob Rees-Mogg.https://t.co/QlLsRdeAWv

Liar. You’re simply a liar. No shame. Just straight up lying to the British people.
You already admitted that the Brexit deal is worse than Membership because it means we have less sovereignty than EU members. You’re now arguing to turn us into what YOU called a SLAVE STATE! pic.twitter.com/M3v55WlrZr— Femi (@Femi_Sorry) March 26, 2019

Mogg is in favour of Britain becoming a slave state. https://t.co/DDFi2sQls5

In November Jacob lambasted Theresa May’s EU exit deal calling it “completely incompetent” and adding “it’s hard to think of anything that could be worse” – today he's….. backing it https://t.co/Sj20TwLKK9

So having said that May's deal makes us a slave state, I assume you will not enslave the British people but will vote for no Brexit and all the rights and freedoms that membership of the EU gives British citizens. https://t.co/znAkzS645Q
