When will Jeremy Corbyn’s vanity — his most essential characteristic — run out? Still MP for Islington North but denied the Labour whip for stating that the problem of anti-Semitism under his leadership “was dramatically overstated for political reasons”, he keeps his supporters on tenterhooks with a constant drip of false hope.
Will he run as an independent in North Islington at the general election, possibly denying the party he once led the seat? (“I will not be intimidated into silence,” is his hint. But when is he is ever silent? Like Sir Thomas More his silence booms across Europe). Or will he run for London mayor as an independent?
