Yep. You won't appreciate his input as you're on the other side of the debate, but he applies a certain degree of check and balance to the Tory's more right wing elements. I wouldn't accuse him of being unbiased, but then, who is?

There is a certain level of irony here but I wonder if you'll figure it out for yourself?

I understand fully that to Leavers, he's a rather large thorn in their side. I'm happy to appreciate him whilst leavers might appreciate Rees Mogg. They are both simply focal points of two diametrically opposed ideologies. Both of them (on a personal level) are probably twats (Rees Mogg certainly), but each serves a purpose to each of the camps.

It's Brexit fatigue. I'm shamelessly championing those that help serve my POV. Fuck it. Rationality gets you nowhere when you've two intractable positions, neither willing to compromise. Each is convinced they're right and won't be persuaded otherwise. 

 

The lesson thus far in Boris's premiership is that the hard line Brexiteers have finally got their hands on the tiller and have in a few short weeks done far more damage to the Brexiteer cause than May ever did. I take solace in this

I don't see the issue with Mogg lying down and resting. Why the hell not if you're waiting with nothing else to do? Probably was thinking, and for him, that is working.
