Britain's Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn was celebrating a strong election night showing when something went terribly wrong.

As he put his right arm around the shoulder of shadow Foreign Secretary Emily Thornberry, he made the mistake of thinking she was about to high five him, Time magazine reported.

He raised his left hand and ended up slapping her in the chest.

The Labour Party had exceeded expectations and taken seats in Parliament from the Conservative Party, Mediaite reported.
