Starmer taunts Rees-Mogg for acting like an ‘overgrown prefect’

Brexit minister Jacob Rees-Mogg has been mocked for acting like an “overgrown prefect” after he put notes on the desks of civil servants believed to be working from home rather than being in the office.

Sir Keir Starmer highlighted support for a windfall tax from senior Tory MPs in the Commons on Wednesday.

“On the other side, the Member for North East Somerset,” the Labour leader added.

“When he is not sticking notes on people’s desks like some overgrown prefect...he’s dead set against it,” he said, sparking a wave of laughter.
