Rightwing commentator in hilarious self-own over Corbyn comments

Darren Grimes rolls out his Corbyn simulator - and get's the perfect response.

A rightwing commentator seems to be making a habit of putting his foot in his mouth over Jeremy Corbyn comments.

Darren Grimes, who founded the pro-Brexit group BeLeave and was made famous during a court battle with the Electoral Commission, has taken to sharing images of a hypothetical world under the former Labour leader during the pandemic.

This week he sent a picture out complaining about his faulty broadband, saying: “This is what Jeremy Corbyn’s ‘free’ broadband would’ve looked like, isn’t it?”

But the picture prompted the perfect comeback after one person replied: “Except it is what the broadband you pay for under Boris Johnson actually looks like.”

The Left will be delighted to learn that I am currently up broadband shit creek without a paddle! ?@VodafoneUK please help! ? pic.twitter.com/laufP9Gc79

Except it is what the broadband you pay for under Boris Johnson *actually* looks like.

It’s not the first time the political activist has been found out.

In March, when the start of the pandemic prompted panic buying in supermarkets, he wrote that the empty shelves had given us a look into life under Jeremy Corbyn’s preferred “Venezuelan alternative”.

Several people were quick to point out his blatant error:

This is, quite literally, life under a right-wing British government where the population is confused & frightened. We all need to demand better from our leaders, Darren, wherever we may stand on other issues. I hope your secretly-funded employers permit you to endorse this plea. https://t.co/c00tqzOPoV

Darren it has quite literally given us a look into life in the UK under the Tories. https://t.co/urevbsmWx1

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.
