I was like: \u2018What?!\u2019 and I went on Twitter and saw the front page and went \u2018Shit!\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was hilarious because the whole way they designed the front page was ludicrous but also most of those people on that front page I\u2019ve literally said two words to since I joined and now I count many of them among my closest and best friends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople like Tom [Tugendhat], Vicky [Fox], I get on very well with Heidi [Allen], I get on well with Bob Neill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause it was so overdone and so unnecessary it kind of threw us together in a way we hadn\u2019t expected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think in some ways the reaction of a lot of the ministers when it came out was so supportive of us and hostile to the paper because I think they recognised that actually, hold on a second here, you\u2019ve basically just as a newspaper backed 15 people into a corner by projecting people in this way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite forcing the Government to offer a concession on locking the Brexit date into law, Masterton does not believe he will be remembered as a rebel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s funny because I\u2019ve not mutineered on anything yet,\u201d he said.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/entry\/paul-masterton-brexit-mutineer-rebel_uk_5a5e428be4b0fcbc3a1405c8\" class=\"autohyperlink\">www.huffingtonpost.co.uk\/entry\/paul-masterton-brexit-mutineer-rebel_uk_5a5e428be4b0fcbc3a1405c8<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tory &#8216;Mutineer&#8217; Paul Masterton: &#8216;Happy Clappy&#8217; Pro-Brexit Tories Won&#8217;t Stop Me Standing Up To The Government Tory Brexit \u2018mutineer\u2019 Paul Masterton has attacked his \u201chappy-clappy\u201d colleagues who cheer \u201clike a seal\u201d whenever leaving the EU is mentioned.
