A politician with less loyalty to Britain than a queen-fibbing Rees-Mogg has falsely whipped himself up into such a fury that he has exceeded "Vivid Vexation".
Director of Faux Outrage Management at the Institute of Irritation, Andrew Suddenly, confirmed, 'Our sensitive instrumentation recorded several pre-shocks. We knew it was going to be a big blow, so we braced ourselves. But what came next surpassed all previous levels of tetchiness.
'The needle flew past Wretched Wrath, and topped out at Raging Boner. Our expertly designed Anderson Angry Scale has never seen the likes of this before. It may need Reform.'
'If someone tells this moron that his glorious English flag is actually pinched from a Turk, then we'll have to invent a whole new level of cross.'

Media watchdog Ofcom has launched an investigation into breeches seen on Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg's GB News show.
Sir Jacob, a former cabinet minister, is known for his choice of more traditional attire.
The 9 May episode of State of the Nation featured the MP's coverage (or lack of) during a breaking news story about a civil trial verdict involving Donald Trump. The regulator received 40 complaints.
Ofcom said: "We are investigating whether this programme broke our rules, which prevent politicians from wearing inappropriate hats during their exposure, unless exceptionally, it is editorially justified."
Serving politicians are, however, allowed to have current affairs [shows], as long as a range of long range views are modestly reflected.
Sir Jacob hosts the hour-long evening show from Mondays to Thursdays, and it was during this show that his breeches became an obvious issue.
Sir Jacob's breeches are being looked into by the Ofcom trouser department. 'One of the things we need to establish is whether Sir Jacob is getting too big for his,' a spokesman said.
A GB News source commented: 'We object to the Ofcom decision on the basis that there's no way that many discerning people watch our channel.'
