Hundreds of people slammed the MP for this and created memes mocking his pose, with some saying the move was arrogant.
His party colleague Anna Turley posted: ‘The physical embodiment of arrogance, entitlement, disrespect and contempt for our parliament.’
And SNP MP Gavin Newlands tweeted: ‘Jacob Rees-Mogg is literally going for a (u)kip on the front bench. I just asked him if I should call his footman to get him a pillow. He politely declined.’
Mr Rees-Mogg later joined Twitter users who mocked him for reclining across the Commons benches by sharing a Poundland bedding gag.
The Commons Leader retweeted a post advertising £5 ‘back to uni’ bedding with the gag: ‘My advisers have insisted that I come up with a recline to take.’
As Mr Rees-Mogg left Number 10 following a meeting of the Cabinet on Tuesday, a member of the press pack assembled opposite the famous black door shouted to ask him if he ‘had a good sleep’.
Mr Rees-Mogg did not answer but later in the day he implored MPs to respect the result of the 2016 EU referendum.
He tweeted: ‘Parliament must respect the voice of the people as expressed in that historic vote.’
