PIC: Either Jeremy Corbyn’s account has been hacked, or he’s getting very real on Twitter

Jeremy Corbyn’s approach to politics is unorthodox, but we doubt it’s this out there.

The Labour leader’s Twitter account appears to have been hacked on Sunday night, with a series of strange tweets appearing from the Islington North MP’s account.

The first signs of the apparent hack came at 9.15pm as Corbyn’s account posted a tweet which read: ‘Here we… here we… here we f**king go!!!’

This was soon followed by posts calling Prime Minister David Cameron ‘a pie’ and one sharing the simple sentiment ‘f**k trident’.

Less than 15 minutes after the first post, the tweets had been deleted. There have been no official response from the Labour party to the posts yet, but we expect Corbyn to distance himself from them very soon.
