It's time to take a close look at Jacob Rees Mogg isn't it? This man has nothing that isn't condescending to offer - with his rock solid belief that any conclusion he comes to must be the correct one. Of late this disgusting Tory has gone into darker places however 1/20

First of all - let's get the double standards out of the way. Nobody does double standards quite like Jacob because he wants to wave them in your face. If you accept them, you know your place (beneath him) and that gives him that righteous glee that he loves 2/20

Mogg is supposedly a Catholic and Christian, and having been brought up in an Irish Catholic household I can, with some confidence tell you what that means. I was dragged to church every Sunday, and seven times in Holy Week every year. Mogg ain't it. 3/20

We were taught that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of heaven. 4/20

The wonderful Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys made this video drawing footage from a French documentary who filmed Mogg as a child: 5/20

His childhood proclamation "I love money, always have done" has not changed. Not an inch. Even his infrequent religious (some times Latin) exhortations try to suggest that he is in fact a Christian. 6/20

"No servant can be the slave of two masters; such a slave will hate one and love the other or will be loyal to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money." Luke 16:13 7/20

Now do not get me wrong - choosing either is his choice - but Mogg, in typical Mogg fashion, wants to be exceptional and have both. The bottom line is, his suggestions of religious righteousness are utterly, utterly false. 8/20

His take on the abortion debate is quite revolting. Good Morning Britain (Sep 2017) "I'm a Catholic and I take the teachings of the Catholic Church seriously" he opposes abortion even in rape [4:29 on video] 9/20

If a woman has been made pregnant through rape he says that she cannot have access to an abortion. Because he's Catholic. However - despite the fact that the Catholic teaching on amassing private wealth is *very clear* - Jacob can excuse himself of hoarding money. 10/20

This double standard, gets so much sharper. Only Mogg could find a way to wind these things together in a more cutting & obvious way. His love of money actually involved his investment in a company that manufactured [checks notes] *abortion pills* (The Indi - Nov 2022). 11/20

Nothing - but nothing - for Mogg, trumps his love of money. Would he compromise his Catholic values for the psychiatry of rape victim? No. His ability to profit from a £5 million investment? Well, yes. Ok then. 12/20

In short Jacob is a bare faced liar. If we are to believe the teaching of Jesus (as Mogg claims he does) "The truth will set you free" John 14:6. However he recently tweeted this: "The Tories voted for clean water". An absolute bare faced lie. 13/20

Going full fascist of late, Jacob has decided that you should only win government contracts if you agree with the government. Disagree with government? Face financial consequences. 14/20

Of course Mogg is an arch Brexiter - and in harvesting the 'ripe fruits' he decided to move his own company to Dublin. Didn't you do the same plebs? 15/20

What many people forget is this little beauty that he tweeted in 2011. Utterly false of course. He didn't mean one word of it and he won't stand by it now: 16/20

This deplorable & disgusting man cares absolutely nothing for ordinary people. One of the worst disasters of recent times - the Grenfell Tower fire - and Mogg blamed.... those who died. "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another" (John 13:34) 17/20

Sadly Mogg sits in a safe constituency (North East Somerset) with a huge majority of nearly 15,000 votes. It would not be insurmountable if Labour & Lib Dems worked together to remove him. 18/20

His very English gentleman routine, his cultivated received pronunciation, his Eton and Oxford education - serves only to warn us all - these people do not make good leaders or representatives. He is, in short, just another entitled Eton sociopath. 19/20

Jacob Rees Mogg is a curiosity piece - but like Boris Johnson - he hides behind all the affectations, & what lives in there is definitely more sinister & dangerous than people realise. He is a terrible influence on British politics. He is in it for himself alone. #GTTO 20/20
