Jeremy Corbyn's eyes give THIS away during One Show interview, claims expert
JEREMY CORBYN appeared on the BBC’s The One Show last night with Ore Oduba and Alex Jones. As the election polls narrow, what did opponent of Prime Minister Theresa May's body language reveal?
Ore Oduba snaps at Jeremy Corbyn on The One Show
The 68-year-old leader of the Labour party was asked questions about growing up in rural Shropshire, his much-loved allotment and, bizarrely, his opinions on manhole covers during his appearance on The One Show last night.
Jeremy Corbyn was also quizzed on his party's policies for the election being held next week.
It was a welcome, warming interview after what was deemed a “car crash” slot on Woman’s Hour earlier in the day yesterday; Corbyn seemed settled on The One Show sofa.
His body language was analysed by expert Darren Stanton who revealed whether the Labour party leader was showing signs of recovery from the morning’s events.
Jeremy Corbyn's eyes gave a lot away during his One Show interview
Darren, who studied Corbyn's interview, believes the Labour leader isn't entirely comfortable with media interaction.
The expert said: "[Corbyn] pulled a microexpression - a fleeting flash of inner emotion lasting 5th of a second." This showed the Labour leader's true feelings – something other politicians don't often give away.
He explained Corbyn's body language doesn't show a man confident with media interviews – in fact, the absolute opposite.
Darren also believes the Labour leader was caught "constructing" an answer after being asked a question on the popular BBC show.
Darren explained Corbyn was caught looking up to the right after being questioned.
This, in the world of body language, indicates the answer was "pulled from thin air".
Darren said: "When right-handed people are constructing or coming up with an answer they either have no confidence in or have to answer quickly, their eyes show how they are thinking.
“Up and right with the eyes is an answer on the spot.
"Looking up and left suggests a rehearsed answer.
"My guess was the question caught him unawares and he quickly came up with an answer."
During the interview, Jeremy Corbyn revealed he “never set out” to become Prime Minister as he followed in Theresa May’s footsteps appearing on The One Show in a bid to woo voters just days before the General Election.
He also admitted he finds 10-year-olds easier to control than politicians in his own party.
Speaking on The One Show, the Labour Party leader made a shocking revelation about his politicians as he sat on the sofa in the lead up the June 8 General Election.
