Why is the tweet by Karl McCartney worthy of inclusion?[edit]
Karl McCartney is a backbencher mainly of note for the accusations of fraud levelled against him and censures by standards boards, and of less standing in Parliament and the Conservative party than Skidmore himself (before the latter's resignation) - so why is a catty tweet from him worthy of inclusion, over and above, say, the response from Zac Goldsmith ("Well said Chris Skidmore, the party will need to regroup after Sunak has crashed it against the rocks. Those who see themselves as part of that future should think very carefully about backing this nonsense policy."). It smells partisan, and was an alt made by an unregistered user whose other edits to this article were also inappropriate opining and were reverted by @Oxonwiki. Remove or include both?
