    Try Stormfront or some of the darker corners of Arrse to find some truly bigoted folks.

    If you’ve ever got a spare half hour or so, he does an impressive line in filibusters…

    I spotted several examples of deviation, hesitation and repetition there. Poor show.

    The pauses and hesitations are entirely in line with the purpose of a filibuster.

    Not really I can’t work out where the venom comes from, people seem to have such polar views on here its an eye opener, and the amount of anti brexit/government/wealth/capitalistic posts, leads me to think these views can only be spouted by people close to the meat.

    No one posts “I understand what you are saying, but i feel” its all “AAAAArgh he’s shite”, “those Tories are idiots”…

    But i guess it is what it is on some forums

    Try a mirror:

    some people aren’t clever enough
    That’s a rather silly post!
    Possibly a bit too nuanced for some…
    I’m questioning whether it’s sensible to reply to someone who’s clearly not equipped for this debate
    To suggest otherwise is just silly.
    I’m not going to waste my time answering your silly posts!
    an incredible inability to debate the original point many of you seem to possess.
    thought it might make you sound more educated?
    the usual STW anti-privilege bigotry and liberal virtue signalling?
    STW lefty hand-wringing bedwetters
    lazy poor people

    On same sex marriage, he said “I’m a Roman Catholic, and have made it clear to my association, from very early on, that in this sort of matter I would take my whip from the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, rather than from the Government’s whip’s office.”

    So I think that reinforces that whilst some of his votes are at the behest of the whip, others are governed by his faith. I can’t find any reason not to respect that

    He was elected to represent his constituents, not Rome.

    If his name was Sajid and he wanted to impose halal in school meals and prayers 5 time a day you’d be pissing your pants.

    I suspect he’d only have to be called Tim for Shib to suddenly lose respect for voting choices based upon religion.

    plenty of posts detailing why people dont like him; including his voting record, direct quotes, that racists dinner he attended, his stance on homosexuality etc

    and a few saying hes just a tit

    Unlike some on here I don’t know him well enough to say if I like him but I do find him interesting, particularly his use of the language.

    His politics I see as a bit Corbyn.

    That’s interesting – the term ‘Shibboleth’ is rooted in multiple murder on the basis or tribal or racial intolerance.

    To be fair, a Canadian senator has rather put Mr Rees-Mogg’s filibustering efforts in the shade. He read his book out in parliament which not only achieved his time using objective but also meant he got it translated into French for nothing.

    I think that was the first time I ever heard of JRM, one of the few Ali G interviewees that didn’t make a complete tit of themselves…

    Anyway, back on topic, what I would like to discuss if we can filter out all the class-hate and privilege prejudice, is whether JRM might be just what the UK needs at the moment…

    I’m very anti-Brexit, but I’ve come to terms with the fact that leaving the EU inevitable now and there’s nothing we can do about it.

    The government could adopt the attitude that they’ve been bullied into making a self-inflicted wound by the electorate, and they are grudgingly going through the motions with neither enthusiasm or confidence in the process or outcome.

    However, I think most people would agree that short of punishing the electorate for making a bad decision, not much else will be achieved by that approach.

    JRM seems to be the only pro-Brexit voice that gives me any sort of optimism about the future. His clarity and lucidity on matters of process and procedure has made me feel far less pessimistic about leaving the EU, and whilst I wish to God we weren’t leaving, perhaps it’s not all doom and gloom.

    What are other people’s thoughts? (without the wealth-bashing please…)

    He’s an arse with an over inflated sense of self importance and would still be an arse with an over inflated sense of self importance if he was poor (though it’s hard to imagine that a lot of his personality isn’t related to his privilege, it’s his personality I dislike, not the privilege).

    Prejudices? What exactly are you assuming my prejudices are?

    You see the name Jacob Rees Mogg and you seem to lose the ability to offer anything other than venting your bile. Or maybe it’s just when you see my name.

    Such a shame, it would be nice to have a grown-up conversation. Is that something you might be able to manage, or would you be better off venting your spleen on a different thread?

    You asked for our opinions on him, I gave my opinion on him. Exactly what other sort of answer were you wanting from me? No venting of my spleen going on, simply providing my opinion as you requested.

    It might help you get the sort of responses you’re after if you request opinions only from people who like him.
