You are indeed, entitled to have your own understanding of the words in a post, however, when the poster then says that was not the intention, I'd be interested to know why you appear not to believe him.

Let's look at the first paragraph QUOTE As Jenrick appears to have tripped himself up horribly on this one and simultaneously speeded up the prospect of Farage becoming Tory leader some time soon, he has set me wondering. UNQUOTE

Did Jenrick appear to trip himself up? Well, he said something and was then unable to quantify it, so, it seems he did trip himself up. I see nothing contentious in that part of the opening post.

The 2nd part? Possibly a superfluous addition and, as I'm in wondering mode, I wonder why rA thinks Farridge will be Blue Tory leader any time soon. He's already the leader (owner?) of a party with seats in Westminster. Will he defect? Would the Blues even want him?
