Jacob Rees-Mogg clashes with Left-wing activists at Labour Party conference

Party conferences can feel like echo chambers, which is why Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg was keen to join us behind enemy lines to debate people at the Labour Party conference in Liverpool. The former leader of the House of Commons challenged Left-wing activists on a series of topics ranging from anti-Semitism to gender to Nigel Farage. They also debated immigration at a time where the Labour Party is grappling with the small boat crisis and the rising cost of asylum hotels. “You’re a parody of yourself,” Sir Jacob was told by one Labour member, as part of the series of one-on-one debates. His opponents were challenged to change his mind on key issues.
