In order to stuff the EU and the domination of France and French in the EU, Mark Francois has announced today that he's changed his name to Mark Anglais.

The correct imperial measurement to be applied to Mark Francois is a "gross". https://t.co/t08LmFfjmn

Objectively, the most reliable indicator of the irrefutable awfulness of Brexit is the abject desperation of the people still clinging to its carcass. Barefaced lies about vaccine procurement at least had some political heft but celebrating these nonsenses is beyond embarrassing. https://t.co/qPncNE3KQg

People give Mark Francois a hard time, but which other MP matches their office decor to the exact shade of gammon on their face? Impressive. https://t.co/U8sEdnryx1

On the plus side, Mark Francois will no longer have to describe himself as 1.5m tall.
