Jeremy Corbyn looks absolutely barking when squaring up to a pooch on the campaign trail in Great Yarmouth
Cody the Dachshund remained cool under the gaze of under-pressure Jezza while he handed out cupcakes
JEREMY Corbyn’s got a sweet new strategy to win over voters – but one reckons he’s absolutely barking.
The Labour leader looked startled when squaring up to a pooch on the campaign trail in Great Yarmouth yesterday.
But Cody the Dachshund remained cool under the gaze of under-pressure Jezza.
Corbyn later rose to the occasion by dishing out Labour-branded cupcakes in Lowestoft.
This certainly wasn't the first time Jezza has been caught looking foolish on the campaign trail.
Earlier this week, the Labour leader was trying to evade the press as he sneaked into crisis talks on the party’s disastrous leaked “suicide note” manifesto when he ran over a BBC camera man.
An ambulance was called to the scene for the journalist who received medical treatment in the street.
Adding to the party woes is Shadow Home Secretary Diane Abbott whose blunders pile up so fast her name is now synonymous with car crash interviews.
From landing herself in hot water by drastically getting numbers wrong on Labour’s new policing policy to a maths muddle up on live TV where she drastically underestimated the number of losses Labour had made, the Shadow Minister seems unstoppable.
During a party rally in York, a Northern Ireland veteran accused Jeremy Corbyn of cowardice after he ran away from his grilling on a troops witch hunt.
Retired Private Rob Gray, who spent four years in Northern Ireland during the Troubles, said the IRA-linked Labour leader had more sympathy for terrorists than veterans.
Corbyn was also caught posing for some extremely awkward pictures pushing two kids on a swing – and they didn't look best pleased about it.
The leader was snapped pushing children Freddie and Isabella in a park in Oxford East.
And in further embarrassment Unite the Union’s general secretary Red Len thudded to the ground on the steps of the IET on London’s plush Savoy Place – right in front of the waiting press pack.
Walking off his embarrassing fall, Mr McCluskey said Mr Corbyn’s hard-left manifesto was “really really exciting” and vowed to back Labour to the hilt ahead of June’s snap poll.
