Jeremy Corbyn Bait-and-switches Twitter On Election Day

As England heads to the polls on election day, Labour Party leader and Prime Minister candidate Jeremy Corbyn has proven himself a solid memer.

In a well-executed Bait-and-switch, Corbyn posted a tweet offering a statement on some "personal images from my past" that had leaked to the press. His tweet included a link which, rather than bringing users to an apology for some embarrassing pictures from, say, when he got too enthusiastic around Halloween, he linked to a site where voters could find their polling location.


As far as creative ways to encourage people to vote go, this is certainly much better than Pokémon GO to the Polls. Nevertheless, supporters took the opportunity to speculate on the supposedly scandalous pictures Corbyn could've been referring to (in good humor, of course).


Others admired the cheek of Corbyn to tweet such a joke ahead of such a monumental day.


Mostly, people just sat back and heaved sighs of relief and chuckles at Corbyn's joke.




While early exit polls show a lead for conservative party, Corbyn seemed to have a good meme day while Twitter dunked on his main opponent for hiding in a refrigerator.
