Jacob Rees-Mogg has faced criticism for his immense wealth and the potential disconnect it may create between him and the average citizen. His estimated fortune of over £100 million, combined with his wife’s expected inheritance, has led to accusations that he cannot truly understand the struggles and concerns of ordinary people.
