Last week, Corbyn announced he would stand independently in Islington North, emphasizing social justice and peace, facing a challenging election. If defeated, it would be a significant setback for him, though he remains emotionally attached to the party he joined 58 years ago.

Although supported by many in Highbury, not all Corbyn supporters will back him in the election.
