Rees Mogg lying down.

Take a look at the European Parliament debates too. Hardly anyone there too or else a lot of them are asleep!

I am a great fan of Jacob but even I don't approve of this reclining look. What is more disgusting though is that there were empty spaces in the chamber for him to spread himself out on. At this most important time in our history, every MP should be in the H of C every day for every debate. In fact they should all be there for every debate, no matter what the subject- that's what we pay them for.

Quite frankly I don't give a damn about peoples voting records at this moment in time. All that matters is what's happening here and now and anyone who speaks out about the shambolic state of our country and it's government is a hero in my eyes. Let's worry about voting records etc when we put our damaged country back together again.

Do you really want to take Soames on as your hero:

Voted against additional government funding for local authorities

Voted against removing heredity peers

Voted against paying higher benefits to those unable to work through illness or disability

Did Soames really say the last bit?

Sir Nicolas Soames and his opinion go Mogg

He told The Times: “I wanted to kick him firmly in the arse and say, ‘What the hell do you think you are playing at? Sit up!’

“[Rees-Mogg] is a living example of what a moderately cut double-breasted suit and a decent tie can do with an ultra-posh voice and a bit of ginger stuck up his arse. You do not behave like that as leader of the House

It is worth extending just for this to happen

Jacob REES MOGG may have to disclose all of his offshore accounts in January 2020 in order to enable full scrutiny by tax authorities.

I’m afraid I have no respect for politicians, and, the House of Lords...well! I wouldn’t mind £300 a day to snooze, you can even turn up, stay a few minutes and then walk back out and still get your £300. Likewise if you have dementia! How can anyone make an informed decision or join a debate with such a disease? How many have you seen in both Houses, snoozing, especially in the House of Lords?

??

Lemon, you can’t give away your sources, official secret act you know

When did you join MI5 or is it 6 Lemongrove? Obviously, you know exactly who did what during the peace process so do tell. I am sure it's fascinating.

Ridiculous.

Precisely Lemon.

Comrade Corbyn was never part of the official peace process
knickas ......he just chose to side with the IRA and invite them to tea at the HOC.Any enemy of the UK was good enough for him.

Of course being against the actions of the government of Israel is not being anti-semitic. Where on earth does that come from and just who is saying it is?

Maddyone. So you agree that being anti Israeli is being antisemite?

I don’t agree with you Kickas, get over it.

Kickas, cheap comment, but the problem is, I don’t read The Daily Mail, but I do watch BBC, ITV, Sky News.

Maddyone. Oh dear. Brainwashed by the Daily mail. He held dialogue with terrorists as part of the peace talks. And he us NOT antisemute. Being anti Israeli state is not being antisemute. What is so difficult to grasp?

Maybe I’m wrong, but I thought he wants to be Prime Minister. Why else would he make repeated requests for an election? (Fri 06-Sep-19 10:37:03)

All parties want to be in government so they can carry out the programme they believe in, maddyone. I would agree with you if you said Johnson wants personal power - he has said so - but I do think you have Corbyn wrong. He wants power for the Labour Party. You may not agree with what that party wants but I think you are reading Corbyn wrongly.

Boris is not a leaver and never was, he was always an on-the-fence, let's write funny columns and not think about politics too much, kind of person, and he is now in the hands of the most fanatical of leavers in order to have the power he craved.

All his life Corbyn has gone with what he believed cutting off his career chances time after time. How has he changed course? He still wants an election but not falling into Johnson's 'backers' elephant trap. That is a swerve, not a change of course.

The Conservatives have been playing games. Why shouldn't Labour play too?

You have ABSOLUTELY NOT stood side by side with him on my behalf!!

‘A decent trustworthy man.......’

And friend of terrorists and an anti Semite.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I thought he wants to be Prime Minister. Why else would he make repeated requests for an election? And now it looks as if he could have one, when it looks as if he’d lose, he suddenly doesn’t want one!

maddyone I don't think you would say Jeremy Corbyn wants personal power if you looked up his voting record. He has always been on the right side of history. He is a decent trustworthy man and there is no blood on his hands. I have stood alongside him on your behalf protesting against injustice for over thirty years. He, as I do , just want a better fairer society for my children and grandchildren. Isn't that what you want?
