Jacob Rees-Mogg has been elected to lead the European Research Group, a group of Tory MPs who scrutinise the government’s handling of Brexit.
Rees-Mogg, a leading Eurosceptic, stood unopposed in the election for the chairmanship.
The position became free when former chair Suella Fernandes was made a junior minister in the Department for Exiting the European Union in Theresa May‘s reshuffle.
