Jacob Rees-Mogg
The distinctive and divisive Leader of the House of Commons, who some call the honourable member for the 18th century.
Boris Johnson says he "crashed the car" in his handling of the case of the party's former MP Owen Paterson. But if the prime minister was at the wheel, Jacob Rees-Mogg was the backseat driver.

Mark Coles asks what now drives the man who as a monocle wearing child was chauffeured in a Bentley.
