A campaign to reinstate Jeremy Corbyn as a Labour MP is gathering momentum but the party has no confirmed plans to welcome him back.

Supporters of the Islington North MP have called this an ‘insult to constituents’ and have criticised what they have called a ‘lack of review’ on last October’s move.

Corbyn was suspended from Labour until last October after stating that antisemitism in the party he used to lead had been ‘overstated’ by political opponents.

Shortly after, he was readmitted to the party. But the whip has not been reinstated, meaning he is a party member but sits as an independent MP.

A spokesman for the ‘Islington Friends of Jeremy Corbyn’ said: “The unjustified withdrawal of the whip is a continuing insult to all his constituents.”

The group is organising a ‘Twitter storm’ tomorrow (November 18) at 7pm to demand his restoration. The hashtags #ReinstateJeremyCorbyn and #RestoreTheWhip will be used.

Jeremy Corbyn and Labour London have both been approached for comment.

This article was amended at 1pm on November 17. The previous version stated he had been previously expelled from the party.
