Protesters from anti-government group Class War confronted Conservative MP Jacob Rees-Mogg, his family, and their nanny outside the family’s home in Westminster on September 11.

The protesters specifically addressed Rees-Mogg’s young children, saying: "Your daddy’s a totally horrible person, lots of people don’t like your daddy, do you know that? He’s probably not told you about that. Lots of people hate him.”

The group then repeatedly questioned Rees-Mogg and the family’s nanny over how much she is paid and how much time off she receives, accusing the nanny of toeing the line of her employer.

Class War’s involvement of the children in this confrontation drew widespread criticism from social media users, as seen in the selection of tweets below. Credit: Class War via Storyful
