Re: Jacob Rees-Mogg

JRM and BJ are both political elite from silver spoon backgrounds who think we are all "houseplants".

Re: Jacob Rees-Mogg

Has anyone else noticed how JRM isn't sounding quite as posh recently? He has speeded up his speech and isn't quite as slow and deliberate....maybe he is considering the top job?.... hope so

I think he would make a great PM. Unfortunately, that cannot now happen as the incompetents: May, Hammond and others, have made the Conservatives unelectable.

Fortunately, Compo has done the same for the Loony Party.

Re: Jacob Rees-Mogg

Hi

I have nothing in common with JRM or Boris.

We need less Old Etonians and more real people as MPs.

Moreover, we need fewer politicians whose only careers have been politics and more who have had real world experiences in industry and other disciplines.

Like Jacob Rees-Mogg?

I agree, though. Politicians without real world experience can never be anything more than pen pushers.

Quite incidentally, that is also my view of school teachers: for a good all-round ability to teach children of the real world, it is necessary to have experience of the real world oneself.
