He was with Biden for @ 15 minutes but that will be a good enough excuse for him! Did anyone see Rees Mogg slouching in his seat with a scornful look on his face. And Patel talking about her experience of being on the front bench whilst forgetting why she is now on the back benches. Again….
You obviously didn't see Rees Mogg rip this apart due to constitutional rules, that were ignored by said PC.
Hmm, that’s one interpretation. This, from the Guardian’s commentary is closer to the mark.
‘The calibre of MPs speaking out for the right to trash the committee was – let’s call it niche. With friends like these …
First of the accused to speak was Jacob Rees-Mogg. In his mind, he is an iconoclast. A comedic and intellectual giant. In reality, he’s just delusional. A tired bore. A man stuck in an imagined Oxbridge of his youth. It had all just been a piece of fun. The epitome of free speech. All he had ever done was offer mild criticism. A committee member, Allan Dorans, had to remind him he had accused the committee of being a kangaroo court – corrupt – and that he and other members had had to review their security.
Rees-Mogg just ploughed on. Getting laughs from the intellectually challenged but disapproval from the rest of the House. He should learn to read the room. He had imagined the clerks would be swooning that he had found fault with Erskine May. They weren’t. They looked totally fed up. Rees-Mogg would have done better to have simply apologised for overstepping the mark. But that would have taken some class. Something Jakey lacks. It was all just a game to him.’
