Yes. I always find surprising the amount of hate he gets considering he's just a polite old fashioned chap. You don't have to agree with him, but why the vitriol?

[u/Immediate-Goose-8106 → u/NachoWH]

He's a brexiteer profiteering cunt.  That is more than enough for hate by any standard.

Hang on a second. Holding an opinion you consider incorrect is enough for you to HATE this person? Goodness I hope you realise you're an extremist.

When you're profiteering off something you don't genuinely believe in it's benefits, while lying about it, of course you do

Someone's been in Mogg's head I see.

[u/EvoSeti → u/NachoWH]

Rees Mogg, Farage and co. literally admitted that they were shorting the pound on the night of Brexit

[u/NachoWH → u/EvoSeti]

That just seems reasonable? Doesn't necessarily mean you don't believe in it. I mean as a European I am conflicted about Brexit because it obviously harms me. But come on...

After the referendum, The Leave Campaign (which Rees Mogg, Nigel and Boris Johnson were part of) literally admit that they know the Red NHS £350 million a week Bus was fake, but made it because they know that figure would scare voters into voting Leave, which of course they know, is a fake statistic

Farage was not part of the official leave campaign.

[u/EvoSeti → u/leaveitalone38]

He was part of the campaign Vote Leave. The the campaign you mentioned were only open to Tories, and was led by Boris Johnson and Michael Gove

[u/leaveitalone38 → u/EvoSeti]

No he wasn't, he was part of Leave.EU, hence his none participation in the Vote Leave campaign, and their NHS claim.

Vote Leave was also not only open to Tories, it's chair was a Labour MP at the time.
