Is Jacob Rees-Mogg actually on glue?

[Haffiana]

Jacob Rees-Mogg is now claiming that the current economic meltdown is not at all caused by the recent mini budget. Oh no. He blames 'interest rates' and er, 'global factors' and the Bank of England obvs. Oh, and the BBC for daring to ask him questions.

Even given the IQ of the shit show that is the current Conservative Government, who on Earth thought it was a good idea to wheel out this farcical, deluded, mad fucker?

I thought they had firmly sealed Rees-Mogg into a box after his last outburst when he blamed the Grenfell Tower victims for dying because they were stupid. It seems they have let him out.

Unfortunately though he's the kind of thick that somehow always ends up having the last word. You know the type, they are so off beam that it's really hard to challenge them.

It might of been on here that I heard the saying, 'it's tough to argue with a clever person but it's impossible to argue with a stupid one'.

If I had been a Catholic, I would have been a true proficient….

Yep, this. He doesn't care what the little people think. He knows they aren't much brighter than him, after all they voted for this.

It is his smugness that makes me want to go and wallop him. I can’t forget when he lounged on the benches in parliament. Disgraceful, arrogant behaviour.

The majority of us who bothered to vote, didn't vote for this.

I am confident that you would have prayed delightfully.

It’s the only explanation, yes.

Cold War Steve

All of this. My only hope is that if he is ever exposed to sunlight he will crumble into dust.

Its indescribably callous. I want to say evil, but it’s not even so intentional. I mean, evil has focus and drive (and generally personality, and often competence), not just disinterest. This is just cultural self interest to the point of believing people who don’t have millions are not real people, to be profited from, either by harnessing their product or skimming their earnings via tax. It’s not even capitalist, it’s fucking battery farming. Of people. It’s despicable. He gives me an awful cold feeling I can’t describe. I wouldn’t stay in the same room as him.

Did you hear him telling the presenter she should look up Erskine May?

I wonder if he would have been the same with Nick Robinson? Or someone who really knew their economics?

Worse 28,360 people in North East Somerset voted for him! Wtf are they on!

TRIGGER WARNING - the cunt being called a cunt to this face by a man claiming he had to prove he had cerebral palsy to receive benefits. He'll get the shock of his life when St Peter waves his finger and points the way to hell.

Actually, the majority of people in JRM constituency who voted DID vote for him. His character was clear before the election, they knew what they were getting.

My best friends lovely DH is in finance and totally incredible at what he does. He talked us through once how if you have a baseline of wealth (that most of us will never have), e.g., through inheritance or whatever, the doors open to amazing ways of making that money work for you (solid property investment, funds, loads of incredible stuff). But you need a high baseline of wealth and a great investment company but if you have those things, that money can start making profits pretty quickly for you.

North East Somerset is a good example of a gerrymandered constituency. Add a strong Lib Dem stronghold (two Bath constituency ) in traditional Labour Wandyke - now it's neck and neck Labour and Lib Dems in 2nd and 3rd place . He will win again.

Each time I watch that video I burst into tears never has truth been spoken to power so eloquently, passionately and painfully. This is what this lot has done to to the weak and powerless in the country and many others in the past 12 years.

Best description I ever read referred to him as a Posturing Regency Undertaker. I don't think this can be bettered.

It was taking shape due to global economic factors, you would have to be on glue to deny that? You can`t keep interest rates at zero and create massive amounts of currency to buy your own government bonds etc. without consequence, but no doubt the "mini budget" undermined the credibility of the government and made the bond market react more than it might have. The main problem with the Mini Budget was that they are still trying to bail out the public (inflationary) while having to raise interest rates to fight inflation, so that is like half smothering a fire with a towel then throwing petrol on top. The current economic meltdown is due to Sheeple borrowing too much for property, Rees-Mogg knows this and is probably glad that it is coming to an end.

"solid property investment,"

LOL, or not so solid as the case may be........ "Dont worry if you didnt inherit wealth Sir, we have a couple of BTL products here that will get you on the track to Riches......."

The man with cerebral palsy is interviewed here (October 2021);

A parish councillor in his hometown of Disley, in Cheshire, Mr Hutchins ran for Labour but said he recently left the party because he felt leader Sir Keir Starmer “isn’t challenging the Government enough regarding disability rights”.

Mr Hutchins acknowledged that Mr Rees-Mogg had stopped to talk with him rather than continuing into the safety of the Tory conference.

Rees-Mogg is an arse, but you're wrong if you disagree with him saying there are other factors than the mini budget at behind the current economical shit show.

Interest rates were too low for over a decade, so there was nowhere to turn when the pandemic hit. The stamp duty holiday was an idiotic move. The Bounce back loan scheme was managed terribly and cost the country a small fortune (arguably furlough and other business grants were too generous too).

International interest rates had been rising since end of last year, but the BoE were slow to react. Now they've over reacted. It's idiotic that the MPC set interest rates purely to try and control inflation - there are so many other factors they should be building into their calculations.

The UK economy has been propped up by central govt policies since the 2008 crisis. The pandemic hasn't helped, and now the Ukraine war has made things worse too. Now it's coming home to roost. It was the wrong time in the economic cycle to try and implement the Truss/Kwarteng Unchained Britannia economic ideology. They just might have got away with it otherwise. But at the moment, it was idiotic (not to mention criminal the way he tipped off his b(w)anker mates).

I’ve read on here before that he is a good local MP no idea if this is true.

This too. He is nowhere, nowhere near as grand as he wants to make people think he is and people need to look past the flim flamery, because he really is as ridiculous as he seems.

Yes cameras on him and he quickly sussed the optics of a good old Christian walking on by. Oh btw for all the China warmongering coming from the Tories guess what the hedge fund he helped founded and has a significant share in is investing. Oh and after Brexit, he moved the HQ to Dublin. Thanks, Clav for the heads up !!

Morals and principles are for the little guys.

I read on here that his dad wrote books on Disaster Capitalism. He’s happy about the mess that’s being created.
