Rees-Mogg is on waffling rubbish, Jacob reckons he knows better than The Bank of England :rolleyes:
Jacob believes the Govt is providing incredible help to us commoners with our heating bills, except......any help is being obliterated by rising mortgage/rent/food rises.
I'm pretty sure Jacob was in Bedknobs & Broomsticks with Angela Lansbury.

Mogg comes across to me as a deeply troubled individual who although supremely articulate is not particuarly bright and who is riddled with religious dogma ... ie: Abortion is sinful etc. I always worry when people in positions of power are influenced by their religious beliefs above everything else., it never ends well. Thankfully he hasn't got TOO much influence or power in real terms. But still worrying ...

Made it to 10:06 today. Geezus.

Yes you are James....

Some of his callers have to be the worst on the station. I tuned back in to see if there was any improvement only to hear some condescending Welsh bloke blowing-smoke up Jimbo's arse chuttering on about how he had done 'extensive research' on the economics degree Kwasi claimed to have ... clearly, all he had done was read an article in the latest edition of Private Eye. It's that kind of psuedo-intellectual bullshit that drives me crazy. Once in a while there is a very good caller, but having to sift through the rest of the feeble-minded fanboys/girls of James' is so tedious. Why would you only take callers who agree with and hang-on every word you say? What's the POINT?
 
Jimbo starts off on a subject, as a presenter does, then within a minute he's rambling about Think Tanks, Daily Mail, schooldays, punching yourself in the face, Dorries 😁

The Daily Mail has never influenced me in my life, tbh.
 
I put James' show through my super-computer to produce a word cloud:

I only read the Daily Mail for the side bar of shame. I need my daily fix of forlorn looking, side boob showing, smooth visage displaying celebrities.

Excellent post.

His 'character' (I would hate to think anyone could be so truly obnoxious in real life) doesn't allow any dissent. Dare to disagree, however politely, and he talks over you instantly. If they make a valid point he moves to try to pin them on something else. Make another valid point and he'll move onto something else to get the 'gotcha' his narcissism feeds on.

It's strange isn't it. It shows a deep-seated insecurity. As you say, how much of it is an 'act' is hard to know. A bit like Jeremy Kyle ... you think to yourself surely he can't be so hateful and arrogant in 'real life'. :oops:
 
Jobbie seems to be losing even his most devoted fan club. I wonder how typical they are of listeners.

Funny how he only slags off the so-called tabloids. The Telegraph didn't lead with politics this morning either but it didn't come in for the same lambasting as the Mail and Express for avoiding the topic.

That's probably because his dad worked for the Telegraph.

And James worked for the Mail but it doesn't stop him constantly having a go at them. Perhaps they 'dispensed with his services'. He can carry a grudge, like the one he had against Matthew Wright for being booted off the Wright Stuff after doing year as a regular panelist. I believe it was just a change of format but he took it very personally.

Zoot Suit by The High Numbers (aka The Who) a great tune.
