His aphorism reminds me of Edmund Burke's:
"The individual is foolish; the multitude, for the moment is foolish, when they act without deliberation; but the species is wise, and, when time is given to it, as a species it always acts right."
Or to quote Boris in his last speech to the House as Prime Minister
“As we've seen at Westminster, the herd instinct is powerful. When the herd moves, it moves.”
I hope it moves fast against Liz Truss.
