But why are they so important and why is it taking so long?

Former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is expected to stand as an independent candidate in Islington North in 4 July's general election.Mr Corbyn, who has represented the London constituency since 1983, was blocked from standing for Labour by the party's governing body.

He was suspended as a Labour MP in 2020 for his response to a report into anti-Semitism in the party.At the time Mr Corbyn called the move "political".His decision to run against Labour in the general election, presents a headache for leader Sir Keir Starmer, as it risks exacerbating existing tensions between himself and MPs on the left of his party.

Labour is currently selecting its own candidate to run in what has traditionally been a safe seat for the party.The Labour candidates have been whittled down to a shortlist of two - Sem Moema, a member of the London Assembly and Praful Nargund, an Islington councillor.

Journalist Paul Mason had thrown his hat into the ring but did not make the final cut.

The winner of the process will be a announced on 1 June.Otters are protected under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 198, and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2017.

It is a criminal offence to wilfully kill, injure, capture or disturb otters except under licence.Dave Webb, founder of the trust, said of the find in Shropshire: "We sincerely hope that someone has information on this or even has CCTV footage from the area that can be passed to the wildlife crime officers investigating this rural crime."

He added: "Although we’ve unfortunately been called out to some strange and upsetting circumstances in the past, this feels like a new low."This seems to be a planned act of unprecedented cruelty and we will do everything we can to bring the people responsible for this act to justice."
