Gemmill 34730 Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 I usually quite like tuning in to watch them get made to look stupid in Parliament, but Rees Mogg is too much to bear. Such a fucking smug cunt, he just makes me angry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the follow up tweet, there is Patel saying she would call the police if she witnessed anyone breaking the rule of 6 (article dated 15th September 2020). Worthwhile remembering that that rule was a stepdown to the rules Johnson broke on May 20th, where Tom rightly points out people were afraid to leave their house twice in one day for exercise. I remember going for a walk with my family, all 4 of us sat on a bench, and the police coming over and literally moving us on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it matters, nobody who is open minded will fall for that bullshit. Labour are 10 points ahead in the polls now with the tories sub 30% for the first time I can ever remember. And most probably more shit housery to come. The 1922 committee will act soon enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take the point about campaigning but he’s so lacking in actual substance that campaigning is really all he does all the time anyway. I also think that once people realise someone is a habitual liar (quite how it took this long for many is another matter) then it’s difficult to come back from that.

Yeah, it’s not like what’s happened in the past is something you can gauge this against because he’d already be a backbencher again if that were the case.
