Summary
It's Chriiiistmaaas! The rescheduled Christmas Special is a cracker. Mixing the hilarious with the serious and the personal, Jacob Rees-Mogg shares his view of the Prime Minister, how he personally deals with disagreement and abuse, as well as the things in life that annoy him - especially about written communication. More importantly, what does he make of Matt's impersonations of Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak? And will Matt dare to do his Jacob Rees-Mogg impression to the man himself..? This is a thoughtful and funny hour with one of the most prominent politicians in the country.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the Political Party. Today's guest is Jacob Reese Morgh. This is the |
| 0:14.7 | rescheduled Christmas special and it was a double header with Rosetta Allen, Khan and Jacob. |
| 0:20.0 | The Rosetta episode will be out in a few days. So this is the first of two parts of the |
| 0:25.0 | rescheduled Christmas special which now took place obviously in April. So it's slightly so |
| 0:30.0 | about to make it Christmas. Here we had Christmas music, I had some Christmas decorations on stage. |
| 0:34.4 | I think I was the only person that enjoyed that element of it. I don't think the audience |
| 0:39.3 | of that bothered and I think the guests were slightly, but I mean it was Christmas, you know, if you |
| 0:45.3 | miss out on a Christmas party, you want to have a Christmas party, don't you? Talking of which, |
| 0:48.8 | the timing of that announcement, I'm recording this an hour or so after we've just found out that |
| 0:53.9 | Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunack have been issued with fixed penalty notices. I mean terrible timing |
| 0:59.1 | for me, interview in Jacob Reese Morgh and that coming out the following day, but there we are. |

| 1:14.2 | or whatever they should jot these things down. Oh, maybe just memorize it. Monday 18th of April, |
| 1:18.7 | Labour's Rosie Duffield. I'm so excited to have Rosie on the show. She's such a phenomenal |
| 1:23.6 | campaigner, an exceptionally brave woman and someone who was spoken in the House of Commons |
| 1:28.9 | about her own sometimes terrible personal experiences and has really used her platform to raise |
| 1:34.9 | often very difficult subjects. She's a phenomenal individual. That will be a very special night. |
| 1:39.2 | That's Monday 18th of April. I'm Monday the 2nd of May. I don't think I've announced this yet. |
| 1:43.7 | I guess we'll be Andrew Mar, who of course has just joined LBC many years. |
| 1:48.9 | Mar's Sunday morning programme on the BBC was essential viewing and of course a titan of |
| 1:53.5 | print media as well before that as well as being the BBC's political editor for many years. So |
