Rasta Jeremy Corbyn

It's Rasta Jeremy Corbyn!

Is this problematic? Is it? Who knows?
By Padraig Reidy - 16/06/2017

Islington North is deep Jeremy Corbyn territory. So it's not unusual to see pro-Corbyn posters in the area. But this one, for a Jeremy Corbyn "fun raiser" at a local music venue caught our eye.

Looks fun. But this picture?

Why is...why is the leader of the Labour party in a Rasta wig? What's going on? Whose idea was this? Is this...problematic?

Hmm...
