Thoughts?

All I can think of is the "football friend" scene from Inbetweeners.

"Ooooh friend... Tory wanker friend!"

Eve · 21/10/2021 20:32

And people fall for this shit! Hmm

SunsetStyle · 21/10/2021 20:32

My husband told me about this just now.
No wonder they keep JRM out of sight as much as possible. He's not got a clue!

VeniVidiWeeWee · 21/10/2021 20:32

At least use the correct words.

catsonmats · 21/10/2021 20:35

Read that as Tories are fiends
I’ll get my coat

@VeniVidiWeeWee

At least use the correct words.
I just looked at the report and it's not far off. 'We all know each other' and 'we have a convivial, fraternal spirit'. Knobheads, the lot of them!

Has he had it yet?

First reply, nailed it Grin

Precisely this.

It baffles me to the point where I can't even get angry or frustrated because there is not point trying to educate those people

ssd · 21/10/2021 20:47

Yep, and there's far too many of them

NoIWontBloodyGo · 21/10/2021 21:05

And...go!

Really?

MyCatHatesWhiskas · 21/10/2021 21:10

@Clocktopus, I can’t un-hear that now Grin

Iggly · 21/10/2021 21:13

It just goes to show, that being posh doesn’t make you clever.

Really?

Yes I thought that. Better then 'Discuss'? Maybe not.

Isn't he knowingly taking the mickey to get publicity?
As our politics slowly becomes more populist, they are using some of Trump's playbook.

Kendodd · 21/10/2021 21:20

And does anyone remember the time he claimed he wouldn't have been killed in Grenfell tower fire had he been there because he was too clever?

The people of North Somerset reelected him AFTER hearing him say that.

RichardMarxisinnocent · 21/10/2021 21:30

I know my work colleagues. I am friends with some. One is my DP. We all still wear masks when in an office together because we work in a hospital, those are the rules, and we don't want to risk potentially spreading covid around the department.

StoneofDestiny · 21/10/2021 21:36

Rees Mogg is a vile specimen of humanity, but it's been the same since the beginning of the pandemic - one rule for the public, a different one for Tories

Ginjanotaninja · 21/10/2021 21:46

The man was talking out of his rear end. The stuff he spouts is rubbish and he really wouldn't know the truth if it jumped up and bit him.

All4Love · 21/10/2021 21:50

He's elected because of boundary changes. The North East Somerset voters are split between Labour and Libdems.

Blankspace4 · 21/10/2021 21:52

Stupid, harmful thing to say.

Not surprising from that idiot.

SparklyLeprechaun · 21/10/2021 21:54

You've got to love JRM, every time he opens his mouth some wildly entertaining shit is bound to come out Grin

ssd · 21/10/2021 22:30

Aye. Him and Boris are a dream come true for Scottish independence🤞

They love anyone with a posh voice and a double barrelled name
