Only if Conservatism has no future.
The ERG are a party within a party, and like Derek Hatton, he should be thrown out of the party.

"............Political fashions change. Once, the future seemed to belong to smiling Tony Blair types (or Bill Clinton epigones) who sought to offend as few people as possible, settle down on the TV studio sofa and try to look and talk as unlike politicians as it was possible to do. Locally and nationally, victory tended to go to the centrist candidates with the fewest enemies.
Now, people want leaders with something to say, who stick out from the identikit politicians - even if they are hated for doing so. Take Jeremy Corbyn and Bernie Sanders, socialists who haven’t changed their views in decades. Until recently, this confined them to obscurity.

If it is it’ll be the death of them. Looks like he’s realised he’s going to have to support Theresa if he’s going to get Brexit.
Selling out venues of a couple of thousand whether you’re Jacob Rees-Mogg or Jeremy Rees-Corbyn or means nothing but I guess it shows that Eton set didn’t go out with Cameron and Osborne :-)

There is a massive difference between far right and right, just as there is between left and far left.
JRM is NOT far right by any means.
"The ERG are a party within a party, and like Derek Hatton, he should be thrown out of the party. "
In fact the ERG are more Tory than the liberals that have infiltrated the party, it is the liberals that need to go not the proper Tories.
