Majority want Labour to bring Corbyn in from cold

More than half of all voters believe that former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn should be allowed back into the party if he is reelected as an MP in his constituency of Islington North.

Exclusive polling for The Independent by Techne shows that while 56 per cent of all voters say he should be readmitted, the number is much higher among Labour voters, with eight in 10 saying that Mr Corbyn should be allowed to rejoin the Labour Party. Mr Corbyn was banished from the Labour Party in May this year, after announcing he would stand as an independent candidate for the general election on 4 July.
