Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries mixed up two Tory MPs with similar names while defending Boris Johnson, doubled-down on the PM's Savile slur and said those who are against Boris are 'Remainers'.
Dorries also engaged in a very awkward interview with BBC Breakfast.
She told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that comments from Nick Gibb and Aaron Bell were “disappointing” but said those in “marginal seats” knew the PM had won them the election.
She was then asked about the 2019 intake on Red Wall MPs – of which Mr Bell is one in his Newcastle-under-Lyme constituency.
