Mr Rees-Mogg quote-tweeted a video from his account, adding: “The bands of blighters bringing illegal entrants to Blighty will be broken up by this brilliant borders bill.”
The reply from Mr Dornan’s account to Mr Rees-Mogg, who is practising Catholic, read: “Hope you remember this the next time you go to confession.”
It added: “You and your cronies are already responsible for the deaths of thousands and you’re now happy to see the most desperate people in the world suffer and drown … If your god exists you will undoubtedly rot in hell.”
