PEACE and socialism will be on the ballot paper in Islington North as Jeremy Corbyn confirmed today that he will stand in the general election.
Mr Corbyn will contest the constituency he has represented since 1983 as an independent candidate on a platform resonant with the popular policies he championed as Labour leader.
Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership has barred him from standing as a Labour candidate and excluded him from the party altogether in the light of his announcement.
