Jeremy Corbyn’s opponents in the press have been accused of “running out of ideas” after The Times’ Senior Political Correspondent accused the Labour leader of being Trump-esque.

The allegation came after a chance screengrab captured Corbyn striking a similar hand-pinch pose to the Republican President during a speech.

Lucy Fisher also noted that the new Labour website “does nothing to dispel personality cult accusations” by featuring Corbyn speaking to “adoring fans”.

Her attack has since been dubbed “embarrassing” and has led to people jokingly calling Corbyn a “finger-curling monster” who “must be stopped”.

The mainstream media has been forced to back-tracked on its anti-Corbyn stance held during the run-up to the General Election after the Labour leader made significant gains on the Conservative Party.

Labour has since gone from strength to strength in the polls, but it hasn’t stopped certain publications scraping the barrel to find insults.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
