Many governments have struggled with getting planning right, particularly for major projects. The answer could be an almost forgotten Parliamentary procedure - the Private Bill. Read or listen more here: letters.jacobreesmogg.com/p/how-to-unblo…
What a surprise, the Blob hated Brexit. telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…
How on earth was this man ever a barrister? Clueless, illogical, weak. And talking nonsense
There are 1.3 million people on social housing waiting lists in England alone. But Keir Starmer believes there’s ‘lots of housing’ spare we should be giving to illegal migrants That’s madness. What is he going on about?
A £7 billion cover-up? Super-injunctions must be exposed. Find out more here: youtube.com/watch?v=2xwjdV…
Starmer's sacking of four MPs is not a sign of strength - it is a sign of weakness, of pettiness, of being thin-skinned. Read or listen to why this is here: letters.jacobreesmogg.com/p/yet-another-…
I gave a speech today in an empty chamber. It’s about the need for a Christian restoration.
MPs and Peers are not bound by any super injunction when speaking in the Chamber. They have an absolute privilege of free speech and what they say can then be reported. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/1…
£7 billion of public expenditure ought never to have been hidden from Parliament while super injunctions are not there to spare official blushes. telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/1…
All the changes made to the taxation of non doms since 2008 must be reversed. They and their money ought to be welcome. thetimes.com/article/d53be4…

The King, as a constitutional monarch, does not make speeches at State Banquets that are not government policy.
‘The speech is delivered on advice… the speech is the government’s speech, and they should protect him.’ Sir Vernon Bogdanor says No.10 failed the King by not owning his Windsor speech, after refusing to confirm whether they even signed it off.
Norman Tebbit changed the country for the better.
‘There’ll never be another Norman Tebbit’ Sir Iain Duncan Smith pays tribute to the late Chingford MP, from his crucial role in Thatcher’s reforms, to his barbed wit, bold ideas, and courage after the Brighton bombing. ‘He may walk free. But my wife will never walk again.’
It is constitutionally odd for the government to distance itself from a speech by the King.
'Why would the King claim there are no borders between the UK and France?' Jacob Rees-Mogg says that with his speech tonight, King Charles is 'entering the political forum in the way the late Queen never would have done'.
Wealth taxes are economic vandalism.
'How can you sell 2% of your house?' Jacob Rees-Mogg and John McTernan debate the merits of a wealth tax.
Trump didn’t need ID cards to secure the border, they are the appearance of action rather than the reality.
‘The British state has failed to secure our borders!’ – Jacob Rees-Mogg The Home Office hasn’t checked who’s left the UK in 5 years. No exit controls. No enforcement. No clue. ‘Worse than useless!’ – Sir John Redwood ‘We have to have ID cards…’ – Stephen Pound
Starmer doesn’t seem to like the British people.
'Why on earth is he so unpleasant to people?' Sir John Redwood says Keir Starmer is 'picking on' the disabled with cuts to special needs support.
David Jones is a great gain for Reform, he is a thoughtful and serious politician who adds “bottom” (in the 18th century sense) to Nigel’s party.
'A real coup!' Jacob Rees-Mogg admits David Jones defection to Reform is 'big win' for Nigel Farage gbnews.com/politics/jacob…
Failure to enforce the law, be it against cannabis or shoplifting, is ruining London and will harm the whole country.
'It has been shown repeatedly there is a strong link between habitual cannabis use and the development of schizophrenia, psychosis and other psychotic disorders' @Jacob_Rees_Mogg calls for harsher enforcement of drug laws to prevent cannabis use.
Bank notes are meant to have permanence to be a store of value. The Bank of England risks this value whenever it redesigns them; making them woke is not just annoying - it could have economic consequences. letters.jacobreesmogg.com/p/a-risk-too-f…
Thousands of top investors have fled the UK thanks to Labour's attacks on the non-dom regime. I knew this would happen and over a year ago I tried to stop it in government. Now, I’m apparently to be attacked in The Sunday Times for it...
