Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has released a video explaining why “austerity is wrong” that mocks the Conservative Party.

The MP’s video starts with rival politicians – sitting in a blue room – making the choice to begin austerity.

The clip, which was posted on his official Twitter page, shows various duos discussing their escalating financial problems.

According to the video, all of their issues can be sourced back to the MPs deciding in 2010 to make “cuts”.

‘Mimicking mockery’

While the actors in the clip are shown to be complaining about the consequences of austerity – the end of the video shows the fictitious politicians agreeing to make more cuts.

The subtitles claim the whole ordeal demonstrates the “vicious cycle” in which austerity works and affects people.

Although the message of the video was serious, the comedic delivery of the “Conservatives” in the clip has not gone unnoticed.

One took a dig tweeting: “Are you conservative? Feeling tired? There’s a wheelchair you can kick someone out of!”

“Mockery and mimicking the Tories? Hilarious”, added another.

“I shouldn’t of found this as funny as I did,” chimed in a third.

Making promises

In July Corbyn said he was planning to force another election, while making a speech at an anti-austerity protest in London.

He told the crowds in Westminster: “We are the people, we are united and we are determined.”

“We are not going to be divided or let austerity divide us.”

“We are increasing in support and we are determined to force another election as soon as we can,” he claimed.
