Andrews enacted a despicable repudiation of the Westminster parliamentary system by denying citizens representation by their elected parliamentarians.

A sound and very measured debate. JRM is a gem. If all the members of the CP were like him, The Conservative Party would be very popular. The Interviewer is very handsome and asks highly intelligent questions. This debate is a pleasure to listen to. Thanku. 😅
I wish you had dug a little more John. Here's what I mean. JRM has long been liked by traditional UK Conservatives of a Thatcherite persuasion and I count myself as one of them. When JRM talks of the Conservative Party moving towards New Labour I really want to know, how in his opinion this is going to be corrected. It appears to me as another example of the long march through the institutions. We have some in the Conservative Party who on environmental and energy issues would fit well in the Green Party. We have some who in immigration would sit well in the Labour Party. We have some who would sit well in any of the left of centre parties on tax and spend, economic policy and similarly on the culture wars. In fact as a 58 year old Conservative supporter who sees Mrs Thatcher as our greatest PM of modern times, I struggle to see any Conservative Policies emanating from this Government. If JRM is unable to vocalise that and set out a way forward to get the party back on track, it makes me wonder whether the most successful political party in the world has run it's course.
Whilst lieing though his back teeth. His desire to leave the eu so strong, he has iris passport and the majority of his money in Ireland whilst he has sold everyone else out! The Australian deal benefits Australia a total liar
These interviews have become a must for me. This one in particular I found fascinating , grown up and even comforting in this troubled world. Imagine society operating in this manner. How much more civilised life would become.
Wonderful interview, fascinating views especially on trade and economics. I have been wondering why he thinks it is good to get rid of those regulations and I happen to increasingly agree. Of course his moral views are good, sad how far the West has fallen.
Brilliant at what? He’s a trust fund kid who’s achieved nothing then is handed a knighthood for loyalty to Boris. Just look at the state of the UK after over a decade of people in power like him…
🇬🇧 Jacob Rees Mogg for PM 🇬🇧 Very intelligent man. Been watching and listening for to him since 2015. A gentlemen in the truest sense. The world needs more individuals like him.
Definitely needs more trust fund kids who achieve nothing in life then get handed a knighthood for backing a corrupt, authoritarian serial liar like Boris…What planet are you on?
@@cynthiamartini8982 he doesn’t have the backing of his MP’s. That says more about the Tory party as a whole. After his comment on Grendel he was told not to speak during 2019 election. The comment may have been insensitive but it was true.
Although I can appreciate that JRM can be a bit Marmite to some, I really admire how well he can articulate and express his views. I found this conversation very informative.
The the first section on Conservatism, Mr. Mogg nails down the basic principles of Conservatism correctly. Proportionality of the State, rights of indivuduals, property, all that. Right out of the mouth of Locke, showing that, after all these centuries Locke's views still hold water.
I really appreciate hearing the Australian view of things, as a Brit. Being so far away it makes us sometimes forget that we really are brothers on the world stage.
JRM speaks a lot of sense but the Conservatives in the UK are so middle of the road on policy that it’s hard to justify voting for them because they are frozen in making the changes they preach
Indeed, he is one of the few true conservatives in Parliament. Most of the others are what Americans would call RINOS. In recent times, only the late Sir Roger Scruton had similar views and intellectual ability.
I agree. Most of the ‘conservatives’ seem to be conservative in name only. Aside from their jobs, what exactly are the current conservatives trying to conserve? What do you think of the Reform Party?
Do you mean the part about Conservative women helping out with the village fete? More like same old comically out-of-touch Rees-Mogg, at that point at least.
@@notme444 well he has a deeper understanding of reality than I initially gave him credit for. If only he would speak up with such clarity and assertiveness in normal circumstances instead of playing a lefty conservative
As an American I fully recognize the American experiment is sort of a distillation (at least at first) of the United Kingdom's achievements. But... then again, I'm a conservative so I know history.
Contains a brilliant description by Sir Jacob Reese Mogg (and I haven't finished listening yet, so more later) of the Ango-Saxon roots of our liberty, adopted by William the Conqueror, and laid down case by case in our common law, a liberty secured again and increased by Magna Carta (1215) and the 1689 Bill of Rights, through the extensions of the right to vote and acts like the Factory Acts (1802 onwards), up to our present day, and maintained by our King in Parliament, who is himself under the law, by our juries and by our MPs. Our children should not be deprived of the knowledge of this timeline, pinned in place by the reigns of kings and queens, with the repeated struggles to keep and increase our freedom. (Some adults now imagine, for example, that the EU was the source of workers' rights!)
I liked the explanation about the coronation The King first is subject to the people and only then is anointed by God I wonder if all those loud people who criticized understood that
Very interesting. Totally true about the French Revolution continuing the divine right of kings in a different form, the centralising State replacing the centralising monarch.
Thanks Mr Anderson for an engaging and informative discussion. I agree that Conservatives need to advance the moral arguments for their ideas and policies, which they rarely do, however, i was suggest that the reason for that is is that they share the same moral ideas as the extreme left. Both conservatives and socialists hold altruism to be the moral ideal, which does not mean benevolence to one’s neighbour but self-sacrifice, selfless duty and the placing of others before self. You said it yourself Mr Anderson when you highlighted the Queens virtue of selfless duty for country. That is the ideal of conservatism but its also the ideal of the socialists, they say that the rational, the productive, the capable ought to sacrifice for their fellow citizens, for “the common good”. It is this moral code which is destroy freedom, since individual rights, individual autonomy and the right to property stems from a selfish, egoistic moral code, that one’s life is ones own and that one doesn’t primarily have a moral obligation to others (altruism) but to the achievement of one’s own life and happiness. Forms of statism (socialism, fascism and communism) result to the extent that altruism dominates a culture. When rational self-interest is adopted freedom proliferates. It is one’s selfish right to one’s life that needs to be championed, not duty to the tribe.
They don't hold altruism to be the moral ideal for themselves, but they do expect you you pay for others and use the violence of the state to force you to pay.
@@timfallon8226 yes they do. Many of them sacrifice their own happiness and a successful career in the private sector for selfless public duty in the public sector. This often fuels their resentment toward the public and reinforces their desire to force members of the public - the most successful productive people (who are normally the happiest and most fulfilled) to sacrifice for the poor, vulnerable or "common good"
On 25 October 2022, Rees-Mogg resigned from the frontbench upon the appointment of Rishi Sunak as prime minister and returned to the backbenches. This interview was therefore recorded earlier! It would be good to know exactly when.
I do like and admire Jacob, can't help feeling he needs to adopt a greater sense of urgency in addressing current issues before they become insurmountable
Superb! Thank you, Mr Anderson! I loved your interview with Rabbi Sacks and this one is of that level. I shall go back and see what I've missed. Sometimes, you feel you want to relax and not think about serious things, but you make serious things warm our hearts and inspire us and that gives a peace more precious than relaxation.
Three possibilities. It’s either in: A) One of the private meeting rooms in the Palace of Westminster (the building which parliament is inside of). B) Jacob Rees-Mogg’s personal member of parliament office in the Palace of Westminster (all MPs have an office either within the building, or in a nearby building close to parliament). C) At Jacob Rees-Mogg’s new £5 million town house in London, which he recently purchased, and which is only a few hundred yards walk away from the Palace of Westminster and parliament. Jacob also lives at his other home in his constituency in Somerset (which he is the member of parliament representing). This is around 2 hours drive away from London, so he spends most of the working week in London and then comes to his home constituency at weekends, which is what many other MPs also do.
@@douglasherron7534 You’d be surprised how many British people don’t know what the Palace of Westminster is. Most think the whole building is called the House of Commons.
'Conservatism' these days really means something akin to a counter culture. Thanks as always to Mr. Anderson for a shining beacon of decency in the morass of RUclips.
Traveling through Europe in the mid 00’s, I was constantly queried about whether I supported G.W. Bush. My affirmative response consistently wrought such a violent reproach, one would have thought the question was ‘did I serve in the SS?’ I support Ukraine’s defense of their homeland, I believe in NATO’s mission, and I strenuously oppose the increasing isolationist sentiment in the U.S., but Europe’s moral condescension, and their continuing refusal to do anything substantive in their own defense leaves me with no desire to continue underwriting their security. Lucky for them, there are a few hundred thousand brave Ukrainians who DO deserve out support standing between them and the Russian menace.
As a devoted family man with 6 children he realised that high office was incompatible with a stable family life and chose the latter. That shows an enviable decency - something Boris entirely lacked.
@@saltburner2Decency by undying loyalty to a corrupt, authoritarian and serial lying leader and government in order to get a knighthood? Are you mental? JRM is a disgrace and fails to back any of his words with real action. Just a trust fund kid who achieved nothing at the end of the day…
Just a technical observation: Mr. Anderson’s audio does not seem matched to that of the interviewee. The otherwise impeccable production values are highly appreciated. Thank you for your attention.
You hope correctly, Sir Jacob-we'll never take any notice of lockdowns again! We couldn't see our one-year-old twin granddaughters for months, and they change so quickly at that age, and our small grandson or help my daughter. (When six only were allowed at Christmas, we vowed we'd hide one twin behind our backs if anyone knocked!) And I know things were much harder for other people.
People stop engaging in political party’s because 1) the party’s are shocking similar on the important question, so the choice doesn’t matter 2) the members actually effect very little especially in the Tory party. We’re allowed to choose a candidate from a pre selected bunch who have already been vetted so nobody has any genuine differences of opinion. And 3) the party’s don’t care what the members think. When polled the average Tory MP was to the left of the average Labour voter on social issues. That’s the problem
Jacob Rees-Mogg is a traditional free trader. It hasn't worked for 200 years because it hasn't been fair trade. Cheap labor for low grade assembly, hospitality, and distribution jobs is no future for the UK.
Perhaps i am mistaken but the uk does not have a constitution. It is based on common law supervised by parliament. Is that correct? David mccabe dublin ireland
The UK doesn't have a written constitution - no single document codifies it, but it is instead one that subsists in historic common law, statute, practices and conventions that have evolved over a very long period of time. Here, Sir Jacob refers to these diverse elements.
I'm not sure that abortion is settled in Australia. As more technology is available to show the unborn baby, I sense people are increasingly against it. Certainly in domestic comment sections. I think this is another case of politicians being totally out of touch with the people.
S Jacob Rees - M makes an amazing point 20 minutes in, on informed consent ie do people really understand or do they only think , they understand . And , are we asking the right question's ?
Please Jacob address the situation that we do not want to become a cashless society, that banks have too much power, and who would ever have thought that freedom of speech was in jeopardy in the UK
Used to be a fan of JRM but he recoiled from taking the leadership in which I think he could have balanced his concerns re: his young family with the demands of the job. His natural tendency is to delegate and make his point with as few words as possible. The point being he could have applied his understanding of what is required of parliamentary members with a disciplinary approach to rid the party of those who expect to personally benefit from their election. The bane of all good governance.
Actually, they have many arguments, mostly contradictory. Some call him a hater while others are angry that he won't endorse racism. JRM is apparently both a Christian bigot and a heretic to the true faith. There are commenters who want total sovereignty, and others who want to be ruled by foreigners, as in pre-Brexit days. Do the Tories spend too little, or is overspending leading to ruin? England's national sport is not cricket. Football is also not it. Whingeing is the real pleasure of the people!
We have a really bad situation in uk now because of the horrendous policies of his government plus brexit 😡we are all worse off in uk now unless you’re rich.

@@douglasherron7534 You’d be surprised how many British people don’t know what the Palace of Westminster is. Most think the whole building is called the House of Commons.
@@XxxULTIMATEZxxX Considering the state of education in the UK, I think you're probably right.
JRM needs to get back to his office. He works for us.
He thinks the peasants work for him and taxpayers should fund his estate…
❤very very good
Excellent interview, very informative.
'Conservatism' these days really means something akin to a counter culture. Thanks as always to Mr. Anderson for a shining beacon of decency in the morass of RUclips.
Hi John, great interview ! Grab an autocue!
Traveling through Europe in the mid 00’s, I was constantly queried about whether I supported G.W. Bush.
My affirmative response consistently wrought such a violent reproach, one would have thought the question was ‘did I serve in the SS?’
I support Ukraine’s defense of their homeland, I believe in NATO’s mission, and I strenuously oppose the increasing isolationist sentiment in the U.S., but Europe’s moral condescension, and their continuing refusal to do anything substantive in their own defense leaves me with no desire to continue underwriting their security.
Lucky for them, there are a few hundred thousand brave Ukrainians who DO deserve out support standing between them and the Russian menace.
Excellent interview and Jacob’s responses. Can’t’ pretend to be a fan, but respect!
Jacob felt the country falling behind him and retreated…. He’s not up for it. Such a shame as he could be a great leader.
As a devoted family man with 6 children he realised that high office was incompatible with a stable family life and chose the latter.
That shows an enviable decency - something Boris entirely lacked.
@@saltburner2Decency by undying loyalty to a corrupt, authoritarian and serial lying leader and government in order to get a knighthood? Are you mental? JRM is a disgrace and fails to back any of his words with real action. Just a trust fund kid who achieved nothing at the end of the day…
Just a technical observation: Mr. Anderson’s audio does not seem matched to that of the interviewee. The otherwise impeccable production values are highly appreciated. Thank you for your attention.
If only the conservatives actually had conservative policies.
In Australia I say the only things conservatives conserve is bad Labor policies
How did I miss the Mogg getting a knighthood
He was appointed a Knight Bachelor as a part of the PM resignation honours in 2022.

Excellent interview - and thanks for bringing up the topic of Peter Hitchens and his blistering attacks on the Conservative party.
Keep up the amazing content
As a Brit, I wouldn't believe a word that comes out of this man's mouth.
Interessante
This guy is a cut above Boris intellectually. As two western propagandists these two are on point
Boris was essentially a populist who played with politics, about which he never seemed entirely serious.
I believe he fell on his sword, politically, to protect the British from mandates
@@saltburner2 As the puppet of the US I think Boris' involvement in prosecuting the war in Ukraine speaks to his " seriousness"
In July 2017 Rees-Mogg
promised us Brexit would reduce food, wine and clothes costs by 20%
How's that coming along these days then, Jacob?
You hope correctly, Sir Jacob-we'll never take any notice of lockdowns again! We couldn't see our one-year-old twin granddaughters for months, and they change so quickly at that age, and our small grandson or help my daughter. (When six only were allowed at Christmas, we vowed we'd hide one twin behind our backs if anyone knocked!) And I know things were much harder for other people.
People stop engaging in political party’s because 1) the party’s are shocking similar on the important question, so the choice doesn’t matter 2) the members actually effect very little especially in the Tory party. We’re allowed to choose a candidate from a pre selected bunch who have already been vetted so nobody has any genuine differences of opinion. And 3) the party’s don’t care what the members think. When polled the average Tory MP was to the left of the average Labour voter on social issues. That’s the problem
❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I like Jacob, one of the few Tories i was sad to see lose his seat.
Jacob Rees-Mogg is a traditional free trader. It hasn't worked for 200 years because it hasn't been fair trade. Cheap labor for low grade assembly, hospitality, and distribution jobs is no future for the UK.
Perhaps i am mistaken but the uk does not have a constitution. It is based on common law supervised by parliament. Is that correct? David mccabe dublin ireland
The UK doesn't have a written constitution - no single document codifies it, but it is instead one that subsists in historic common law, statute, practices and conventions that have evolved over a very long period of time. Here, Sir Jacob refers to these diverse elements.
'It's not for government to gift us freedoms,: it's for [government] to defend them.' Well said, Mr Anderson!
Two Catholic politicians whose journeys have been shaped by Catholic social justice.
I'm not sure that abortion is settled in Australia. As more technology is available to show the unborn baby, I sense people are increasingly against it. Certainly in domestic comment sections. I think this is another case of politicians being totally out of touch with the people.
Now put all the hot air into ACTION!
We had best worry a lot, not just a little . Now is not the time to understate what is unfolding ....But I am only 12 minutes in ,
S Jacob Rees - M makes an amazing point 20 minutes in, on informed consent ie do people really understand or do they only think , they understand . And , are we asking the right question's ?
Not sure the Labour Party has a heart - only an appetite .
Politicians are a bunch of liars.
Please Jacob address the situation that we do not want to become a cashless society, that banks have too much power, and who would ever have thought that freedom of speech was in jeopardy in the UK
Welcome to the ARC Alliance Jacob.
He should join Reform 🤔
Being anti family is anti human.
Used to be a fan of JRM but he recoiled from taking the leadership in which I think he could have balanced his concerns re: his young family with the demands of the job. His natural tendency is to delegate and make his point with as few words as possible. The point being he could have applied his understanding of what is required of parliamentary members with a disciplinary approach to rid the party of those who expect to personally benefit from their election. The bane of all good governance.
Australia needs a leader, I wish it could be John Anderson
@johnanderson please consider 🙏
Jaccob the word you're looking for is Eugenics
The messages make me despair. Has no one got an argument to make?
Actually, they have many arguments, mostly contradictory. Some call him a hater while others are angry that he won't endorse racism. JRM is apparently both a Christian bigot and a heretic to the true faith. There are commenters who want total sovereignty, and others who want to be ruled by foreigners, as in pre-Brexit days. Do the Tories spend too little, or is overspending leading to ruin?
England's national sport is not cricket. Football is also not it. Whingeing is the real pleasure of the people!
Regarding AUKUS, what are the thoughts on Canada?
We have a really bad situation in uk now because of the horrendous policies of his government plus brexit 😡we are all worse off in uk now unless you’re rich.
Another winner John...Nothing will change, I'm managing the collapse,
If you rely on Net Zero, then you will have nothing and humanity will suffer badly
