The disturbing attack on Jacob Rees-Mogg’s children

Guido Fawkes has a disturbing video of a protest outside the home of Jacob Rees-Mogg from yesterday. There are demonstrators bearing a banner, at least one of whom is wearing a mask, and police officers are there. One of the demonstrators harangues Rees-Mogg before turning on his children and shouting at them: ‘Your daddy is a totally horrible person. Lots of people don’t like your daddy, you know that? No, he’s probably not told you about that. Lots of people hate him.’ The same man then begins sarcastically interrogating the children’s nanny about her pay and conditions. When she tries to assure him the Rees-Moggs are good employers, he tells her she has Stockholm Syndrome.

I should note before going any further that I disagree with Jacob Rees-Mogg on almost everything. In fact, you might say I floccinaucinihilipilificate his worldview. I’ve even written this about him:

‘There is a genre of right-winger who never grows out of the theatrical Toryism of their student days and the boozy dinners that demand sound opinions and sounder constitutions.
