Tone deaf Jeremy Corbyn embarrasses himself when he joins in with choir serenading him on the street
Labour leader's performance showed he is much better at politics than he is at singing
Labour leader's performance showed he is much better at politics than he is at singing
JEREMY Corbyn showed his delight at being serenaded by a choir by joining in – and ruining the moment.
The tone deaf veteran leftie was miles away from grasping the tune when Some Voices Sing sang Ain’t No Mountain High Enough on a London street last night.
But he did his best by speaking the words before beaming as the song came to an end.
SVS’s performance for Corbyn came after a long Labour leadership campaign with him battling against Owen Smith who wants to take the top job.
Statistics published by Corbyn's campaign team paint a picture of the level of support enjoyed by the incumbent leader during his push to retain power.
The Jeremy for Labour campaign said it signed up 40,000 volunteers and raised more than £300,000 in donations from approximately 19,000 people with an average donation of about £16.
Meanwhile, more than 300,000 calls were made to Labour members and supporters from phonebanks with 111,000 more calls placed using a website app.
The campaign also said it reached six million people per week on Facebook when it was at its peak while its tweets clocked up 82 million impressions in August and September.
A Jeremy for Labour campaign spokesman said: "These figures show the strength of our positive campaigning that has focused on bringing people together, and draws on the talent and skills of our party's members.
"We hope that this campaign will also help put the party's more than half-a-million members at the front of our strategy to win the next general election so that Jeremy Corbyn can implement his policies to rebuild and transform Britain so that no-one and no community is left behind."
Corbyn is widely expected to be re-elected as the Labour leader on Saturday.
But his right-hand man John McDonnell has said it will be tough for him to win with the same margin as he did last year.
