Popstar Lily Allen reacted to today's unveiling of the Labour Party manifesto by 'welling up' in a bizarre video and posting it on Twitter.

With tears streaming down her cheeks, the supposedly sobbing singer tweeted a clip of herself struggling to contain her emotions after watching Jeremy Corbyn announce his plan for government.

Her voice cracking, she dabbed at her eyes with immaculately manicured hands and said: 'Guys I've just watched the Labour manifesto. I think it's the best manifesto I've ever seen.'
