    p.s. Rees-Mogg is a rather well-known family name. There's a Conservative MP by that name and his father is William Rees-Mogg, former editor of The Times. If you're as old as me you might remember that he wrote the famous Times editorial about Mick Jagger's prison sentence in 1967 - "Who breaks a butterfly on a wheel?"
