He certainly resonates with me. It's just a question of time.

How can you not love an MP who's grassroots organization is called "Moggmentum".

Rees Mogg???

Do you really think that is someone who resonates with the UK at present?

He's extremely intelligent, understands parliamentary process better than anybody around & is known for being polite to everybody.

If he doesn't resonate with people the shortcoming is theirs not his.

Admittedly a lot of people won't see past the posh accent. Ironically the same people who would be up in arms if anybody criticized somebody's common or regional accent.

Jaguar Land Rover to produce first car entirely outside of Britain

Like much of the British car industry, JLR is also worried that Brexit could leave its car exports facing lengthy customs delays and tariffs of up to 10 percent, risking the viability of production in Britain.

What exactly does he mean by a 'jobs first Brexit'? Until he tells us, it's just another of his meaningless soundbites.

Yep. He needs to get a meaningful slogan like 'Brexit means Brexit'.

I'm pretty sanguine about it.

The impact will be a crisis in British democracy, which a resurgent right will make hay with, so not a bad thing in my book.

The Right's having its backside handed to it, both here and in Europe. By the time Brexit voters realise Brexit isn't going to happen, 6% of them will have died of old age. The younger ones will be surrounded by empty tubes of sour cream Pringles and will forget about it as soon as Jeremy Kyle comes on.

Yes, I do. He's intelligent, articulate, says what he believes in without being condescending.

Good article about him in The Spectator.

Yes, of all the people I would support the Tories choosing as their next leader he would be it.

I would be slightly concerned about Ruth Davidson, becaus you know, she might actually have a chance of winning for you, but as long as you and your party seriously think that Rees Mogg is going to win back the vote of the common man I am all for it.

Heehee, I think you've discovered the next Tory campaign slogan.

'If you don't like us the shortcoming is yours not ours.'

Incidentally that does pretty well sum up what Tories think of other people.

Oh dear, Corbyn really does struggle when asked a straight question:

That's right, anyone who doesn't agree with you must have shortcomings.

Are you confusing the word resonate with the word agree? They don't have the same meaning.

Get off. The whole 'if he doesn't resonate with people the shortcoming is theirs not his' is so amateur.

An attempt to stifle debate on a debating board. Shame.

Attempting to stifle debate? No idea what you're on about.
