I really disagree. Many people within the UK are looking seriously at independent candidates to break with the traditional parties working for their own agendas and the individuals that finance their parties. Traditionally labour worked for the people but clearly now it’s a second conservative party Like myself, many formal labour supporters would rather spoil their ballot papers and vote for labour So I think it’s important to vote to send a message and vote tactically when it comes to independent members of Parliament .

JC will eat hugely into Labour's vote in Islington, though it may not be enough to get him over the line. His support for Palestine is to be respected. Is it a problem for the Party? Not really. As an independent candidate his position on any issue is by definition not a matter for Labour.

The Labour Party won’t let him stand as an MP. If they hadn’t behaved in this disgraceful way they wouldn’t have such a ‘distraction’. I’m never voting party politics again. I’ll vote independent going forward. Corbyn is going to crush Islington North. ‘Labour policies’ are no longer social democracy. They are not even Tory Lite. On some issues they are to the right of the Tory party.

stalin starmer undemocratically imposed on Islington a labour candidate that the local labour party did not want , or need as Jeremy Corbyn has worked hard for his constituents for decades , and is the best choice to represent his ward ,,,, i wish also that Andrew Feinstein succeeds in making stalin starmer unemployed , labour do need shut of the tory leading them

OHHH JEREMY CORBYN

No more corruption and theft of our TAXES put into private companies accounts and out of our country bu MPs and government

It is a sign of much wider problems in the 'Labour' Party. They have lost the support of many of their former members and even elected representatives. What are their policies? Their overall victory in the coming election will be more due to a desire to be rid of this Conservative Government than any real enthusiasm for what they offer.

Thank goodness for left-wing Labour MPs like Clive Lewis and John McDonnell, and a left-wing party the Greens, who support arming Ukraine.

Unfortunately there's not much difference between Sunak and Starmer when it comes to foreign policy (copy the USA), so it's vital that there are a few remaining anti-war voices to the left of Starmer. Don't forget he was almost PM in 2017 whilst standing up for what he believed in, so has been a far more successful politician than most in Westminster.

This is such good news for Labour. Corbyn as an independent candidate, if Labour fringe grounds support him, they'll be turfed out, or they have to fall in line. No issue with Corbyn personally, he seems decent. Whether he wins or not seems irrelevant. Very good news for Labour.
