"In moments of death or glory, you tell people what you're doing, you don't participate"

This is a quote from Steve Baker, swivel-eyed ERG loon, trying make himself look brave for considering entering the Tory leadership contest if no one else is sufficiently hardline on Brexit.

But it seems to say "don't do anything, just talk about it". Which seems to be an admission that he's useless. But he says he's "been through training for this". WTF?

Is he such a useless politician that he can't even talk without putting a "don't" in the wrong place?
