Jacob Rees-Mogg turned TV investigator to track down asylum seekers for GB News and it’s less Roger Cook, more Roger Cock

As you can imagine, right-wing news channel GB News have been having an absolute field day with the migrant hotels situation. One of their presenters, a certain Jacob Rees-Mogg, has even taken on the role of investigative reporter as he attempted to visit a hotel suspected of housing asylum seekers.

As you can see from the following clip, shared on Twitter by Lucy Brown, the ex-Tory MP’s reporting style is a lot more Alan Partridge than Roger Cook.

It’s quite the watch.

This is so embarrassing. How far he’s fallen since he lost his seat. Cartoon character now. Shouting over a wall. Sunday Sport level.
