PIC: Jeremy Corbyn's aide looks ridiculously like Tom Cruise

The resemblance is eerie.

British Labour politician Jeremy Corbyn has had a disastrous election campaign in the last day but at least it looks like he’s enlisted the help of a Hollywood action star (not really, though).

According to the Daily Mail, the pair were photographed moments after Mr Corbyn's car ran over the foot of a BBC cameraman as the Labour leader arrived for a meeting with senior party figures in central London this morning.

Tweeters have been delighted about the whole shebang:
