Jeremy Corbyn confirmed he will stand as an independent candidate against his former party in the upcoming general election, contesting his long-held Islington North seat.
In an interview, Corbyn expressed dissatisfaction, stating, 'Local Labour Party members in Islington North have been prevented from choosing their own candidate, which has disempowered everyone in the community.'
Corbyn's campaign will likely attract left-wing supporters disillusioned with current Labour leader Keir Starmer, with a platform including policies like rent controls, public ownership of energy and water, and a Green New Deal.
