Jeremy Corbyn was mobbed by supporters when he took an unplanned walk through the streets of Bristol on Friday afternoon.
The Labour leader reportedly infuriated photographers and the press by ignoring them, and instead talked to shoppers and young mothers in Bristol’s Easton district.
Ian Onions, the political editor of the Bristol Post, described it as “a walkabout by a political leader like no other”.
“Instead of the usual stage-managed performance, meeting and greeting people specially handpicked for the occasion, Jeremy Corbyn took to the streets of Easton to talk, listen and have his photo taken with shoppers, traders and passersby,” Onions reported.

more preferable than of the governing blue and red tories.
There are no governing red Tories.
A political leader who isn’t frightened to go out into the streets to meet and talk to ordinary people.
A man of the people, he actually cares about others and cares about those who are struggling with low pay unemployed, and Ben the sick and disabled.
This man shows he is one of us. Where’s the TORIES? Probably trying to decide how much more money the can squeeze out of us.
Presumably, visited to support the Labour candidate (the gentleman stood to the viewers’ right of Jeremy Corbyn ), for Mayor of Bristol

The total is three fewer than the number of eligible voters Mr Godfrey required to nominate him to stand in the election.

I guess you knew about it Mike, but there was a live webinar on YT yesterday (don’t know where they were), where there was a Q/A session afterwards. They also did an online chat. I only found out about it via a YT email. As if you hadn’t already realised, JC is MOST DEFINITELY VERY DIFFERENT to most other MPs.
Well Done Jeremy, top marks, most papers are run by tory pigs who will distort anything you say so don’t say anything to them which i feel is road you are taking regards.
Bet the closet tory Labour members are green with envy over this!
