Jeremy Corbyn: What I stand for in the general election
JEREMY CORBYN explains that peace, housing and decent living standards for all are top of his agenda as Britain gets set to head to the polls, where he has announced he will be an independent candidate

THANK YOU to the Morning Star for regularly printing articles of hope, determination and belief in a better society and a better world.

Yesterday morning I announced my independent candidacy for Islington North in the general election.

Today I’ve not long returned from a daily visit to a local cafe, and I spoke to many residents as I made my way to and from the cafe. I was delighted to receive many offers of support, and congratulatory messages for our campaign, and expressions of hope that we will offer something very different from other mainstream parties.
