Corbyn: I will not lead Labour at next election bbc.com

The Labour leader's decision comes as the party faces its worst election performance since 1935.
He added that the issue of Brexit had "polarised" politics and "overridden so much of normal political debate".

But others within Labour, including former MPs who lost their seats, blamed Mr. Corbyn's leadership.

Labor has lost a string of former strongholds in the north of England and Wales in areas that voted Leave in the 2016 EU referendum.
