    1. Not really a shock tbh. Hes a beloved constituency MP for a reason. Even if he doesn’t win, he’s about 1 of a few MP’s who could even stand a chance

      He was overwhelming favourite and now he’s just a slim fav. This is the same poll that was read as him losing.

      Seems like the same alternating stories are going to be published every few hours until the results are announced. “Jeremy Corbyn favourite to win close election” “Jeremy Corbyn no longer favourite to win close election” and repeat

      Wasn’t there an article this morning claiming that he was going to lose?

      Half of these polls aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.

    5. I’m not a fan of the guy but the way Starmer talks about him I hope he wins, would be great to see him ask Keir about that Corbyn style manifesto he was apparently so against

      Okay.

      However, I don’t live in Islington North so to me this means very little either way.

      Geriatric career politician incumbent drowning in racism scandals vs young ethnic minority challenger looking to break up the status quo from the King of Islington

      As a progressive, I know who gets my vote
