Sack Europe Minister Alan Duncan for profound offence to Brexit voters!

The Issue

At the Tory Party conference today, Europe Minister Alan Duncan was profoundly insulting to Brexit voters:

"Leave supporters among the British working class threw a tantrum in the Brexit referendum about immigration, and often complained about Europeans taking the jobs they themselves had refused to do, the Europe minister, Sir Alan Duncan, has said."

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/oct/03/brexit-vote-was-tantrum-by-british-working-class-says-alan-duncan

It is ABSOLUTELY unacceptable for your minister, with the brief for Europe no less, to grossly and crudely traduce, misrepresent, demean and insult the majority verdict to LEAVE the EU.

This is completely incompatible with him staying in his position as he makes clear he has "gone native", is loyal to the EU, and is entirely unprofessional in his behaviour.

We, the undersigned, demand his immediate sacking from his position to restore confidence in your governments commitment to "Brexit mean Brexit!"

If you are looking for a candidate to replace him, we see you have Jacob Rees Mogg in the wings!
