Due to his response to an antisemitism report, the former Labour leader’s party whip has been suspended since 2020. As a result, he currently serves as an independent Member of Parliament.
After the National Executive Committee (NEC), the party’s top body, approved a motion last year that opposed his endorsement for the position he has held for more than 40 years, he was effectively barred from running for office.
Since winning the seat in Islington North for the first time in 1983, the seasoned MP has done so eleven times in a row, frequently with a sizable margin.
Mr. Corbyn, who is still a member of Labour, has not yet declared his intention to run as an independent. He might be suspended from the party he has been a member of for 50 years if he does this.
