When politicians try to create grass-roots movements that create a form of representative democracy which is led by the needs of constituents, they are usually ostracised and defamed. “Centrism” and “right-wing” are the binary that is pushed in order to maintain the status quo and continually increase the profits of the owner classed, which involves making the lives of most of the people of Britain much worse. If you want people to focus on our actual issues: - Support unions - Support protests - Advocate for increased taxation on wealth and ownership and lower taxation on labour. These 3 things will inherently make our lives better and we’re the things that have massively improved living conditions throughout history. Do not take heed of the lies and the politics of division. United, we are strong.

I can understand JRM defending his patron, much like saving the Titanic as the gin with ice hits. but if Boris knowingly went to a party he deserves the ban for being a liar and if he didn't knowingly know it was a party as he made a toast and drinks his wine, he still needs to be got rid of for being the stupidest man alive.
Politics is never, nor ever has been, simply "a game of truth and lies". It is an occupation in which one is exchanged for the other, depending on various factors of the moment and according to who is taking a view and forming an opinion. That is why this sort of speech from such a literate incisive mind remains so essential to parliamentary debate.
Knighted... Lol. Honestly, it all sounds like children trying to feel special. They've obliterated any kind of respect towards knighthoods and things of that nature completely. Personally, if someone holds a title like that, I'm instantly suspicious they're crooks. Generally, it's all just scratchy back crap.
Shame he didn't do what he did when he was PM and rally the troops to back the big dog when it came to the vote. Get everyone on his side to vote against the report.

Not a single point provided a viable argument against the fact that as a prime minister, he was allowed to party but dying people weren’t allowed to even be with their loved ones. He is trying to defend Boris’ character, but the 3 cases of affair and adultery are more than enough to make a conclusion…

A very articulate and detailed response... But Johnson's advisers wouldn't have recommended his resignation if *they* thought he had a convincing defence. Johnson would normally try to lie and bluff his way out of most things, so there must be something in the Report which was, quite simply, beyond defence.
When it comes to the public we don't get these benefits. If I break the law it's assumed I did it knowingly. If I'm speeding, intent has nothing to do with it.

They are telling on themselves. Like most conservatives. They say it isn't important, but then bring it up ALL the time. They say this is a waste of time since Boris resigned, but then waste so much time defending him. Liars. The lot of them.
The quest for making the most amount of money with minimal amount of effort knows no bounds. It seams he has had the ability to feel empathy surgically removed from the emotion feeling part of his brain. This man wants 18'th century cruelness and unfairness back. How low can you go?????
What a waffler! He promised to be brief yet waffled on and on. Never mentioned the fact that parties *were* actually held and that Johnson attended several.
@julian shepherd It's all so important when it comes to queueing in Tesco's or a food bank. Excuse me, I'm not a Lord. My father was, I'm just a Sir, so you go first.

This creature can’t even look after his voter’s interests, far too busy defending liars and cheats and appearing on his TV show. I really hope the voters of Radstock and especially Midsomer Norton do the right thing in the next election and get rid of this skid mark of a man

You have to admire the consistency they approach at getting off on a technicality. Partiality was a good bit considering how confused they get about impartiality of the BBC.
The footage that Boris must have on this guy must contain a few minors, several murders and perhaps severe runny tummy at the same time. Those Moscow hotel rooms are wild!
You have to hope that when they get to their teenage years, rebellion kicks in and they start asking some bloody questions about his decades of bullshit and poor hating.
I heard that when the report was first published, all the Tories got together to discuss it. One of them said: "that's it, Big Dog is done for, he's completely up Shit Creek without a paddle" and Therese Coffey replied: "You're really going to have to narrow it down a bit".
Of course it is not China. In China Johnson would never have been investigated publicly and he'd still be in power, probably for life, something that JRM would approve of.
It just shows you. That going to a public school doesn't necessarily give you intelligence or common sense. Innocent people, on the whole, are not fined for law breaking, especially when there is evidence to prove said guilt. That is the problem with British Politics. The spin is unbearable to hear and that these politicians are still defending Boris is inexcusable.
Perhaps someone should point out that it is not necessary to read someone's mind in order to conclude that, faced with all the evidence, it is highly likely they were fully aware of something. To use the analogy already stated..... If I was driving a car doing 100 miles an hour it would be right for you to assume I knew I was driving that fast.... Either that or I was criminally negligent in not knowing that fact. Perhaps this is the "Don't blame Boris, he is too thick to be at fault" defence.
"Blindly" defending...? What a shocking description of an obviously rigorously assessed set of questions and assertions/conclusions. Like or loathe what Johnson is supposed to have thought and done, this type of invaluable dissection of what is put forward as a judgement on a career and its assorted alleged actions is in the best tradition of parliamentary debate. Long may there be those like this parliamentarian who is not afraid to challenge the "narrative" and all its damaging ramifications. Or is Glenda Jackson's attack on Margaret Thatcher somehow unique? Impartiality suggests that both of these notable speeches are examples of Parliament doing its job..
From what I just watched I am surprised Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg was never a lawyer, he makes a good case. A lack of impartiality and insufficient evidence that a certain man knew he committed a crime.
Really? "A penalty notice from the police isn't a conviction so it doesn't matter and no-one should be able to think badly about him as a result of it." THAT is his defence? "People told him it was fine so it's not his fault." Great, so if I ever break the law all I need to do is claim someone, somewhere told me that it was ok and I'm immune from any consequences? I'll keep that one in the back pocket. Finally I agree on something with Mr Rees-Mogg, there is nothing in Boris Johnson's brain. What on Earth do they teach people at Oxford?
I wish they can spend 10% of this effort into British people’s problem.
They do, they spend much more effort on people's problems - _creating_ people's problems.
sell some of the monarchy's land/property holdings and you would have enough money to do _almost ANYTHING_
The effort is coming from the Labour party.

Impartiality suggests that both of these notable speeches are examples of Parliament doing its
job..
He is being tried by his peers....
Moggy loves using big words !
"I buggered a stableboy and he has pictures. I must stand up for him"
Well said Jacob! 😊👍
Lord Snooty's at it again ... 🥱
Brillyaaaant 😅😅😅
Moggs version of history revisited what a pompous clown 😊
Yet the Moggy completely ignores Johnson track record,oh wait he’s been given a knighthood👹
Spare us the theatrics Smugg, Johnson was up to his tits in parties, cheese and chorizo.
How can anyone look at Rees-Mogg and think, "Ya, that's who I want to work alongside." The guy's a fucking freak!
Time to vote him out.
Yep, kick the lying barstewards out, as soon as possible.
From what I just watched I am surprised Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg was never a lawyer, he makes a good case. A lack of impartiality and insufficient evidence that a certain man knew he committed a crime.
This shoulderless piece of work has put me right off my lunch, THANKS Politics Joe...
What nonsense could have been avoided if this kid just got some friends and played some D&D?
Court jester tries to defend the circus clown
Really? "A penalty notice from the police isn't a conviction so it doesn't matter and no-one should be able to think badly about him as a result of it." THAT is his defence?
"People told him it was fine so it's not his fault." Great, so if I ever break the law all I need to do is claim someone, somewhere told me that it was ok and I'm immune from any consequences? I'll keep that one in the back pocket.
Finally I agree on something with Mr Rees-Mogg, there is nothing in Boris Johnson's brain.
What on Earth do they teach people at Oxford?
Everything he criticised - he is guilty of! Wowzers
Jacob's nose looks awfully brown
Well even the devil defends his demons
Harriet Harmen was the committee chair, not the judge. It’s the MPs who are collectively the judge and jury, but sadly not the executioner:-(
This is the price of a seat in the Lords, then! Bogg is foul.
Of course he's defending him, he doensn't want to lose his knighthood
