As shoppers walked out of Morrisons in the Nag's Head shopping centre, they were surprised to encounter a familiar face.

While a traditional PR stunt for MPs typically involves going to a construction site somewhere in a hard hat and, most importantly, pointing at something, the Labour leader was spotted quietly singing and raising money for Oxfam.

Media were not informed of Corbyn's trip in advance. Instead the Labour leader decided to join his local Labour branch in Islington as they went out carol singing and raised money for refugees.

Corbyn has previously demonstrated that he believes the government should welcome more refugees to the UK. Hours after becoming Labour leader, he attended a "Refugees Welcome" rally in central London.
