Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn wins as independent MP after being expelled from party

LONDON: Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn on Friday retained his Islington North seat as an independent despite being expelled from the party, which is set to rule the UK after winning the general election. The 75-year-old former Labour leader served the ward as a Labour member since 1983, winning the seat 10 times at elections. He faced a tight race, despite winning a majority of 26,000 - 1,180 more than this year - at the last general election in 2019 as Labour leader. The Keir Starmer-led Labour Party hurtled towards a landslide victory in the historic UK election.
