Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker and Obi Wan ... Corbyn?

This striking image of Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has appeared on the side of a dog grooming shop in Chorlton .

The painting shows Mr Corbyn dressed as a famous Star Wars character - Jedi master Obi Wan Kenobi.

A heroic figure to legions of Star Wars fans across the globe, Obi Wan was famously portrayed by actors Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor in George Lucas’ space opera.

The new artwork has been emblazoned on the side of Betty and Butch, on Barlow Moor Road, in the trendy south Manchester suburb.

It appeared on the side of the shop overnight, much to the surprise of residents and shopkeepers.

The artist, who has signed the work as @piccasa, has deliberately painted the image with a slight left lean to reflect Corbyn’s politics.

The caption below reads: “Jedi Jezza”

“Sorry its leaning to the...”LEFT.””

It is not yet known if the spray painted image will become a permanent fixture.
