(MENAFN) An eighth member of Britain's main opposition Labour Party has quit from the party in objection of the leadership style of leader Jeremy Corbyn.
Joan Ryan tweeted: "after 4 decades, I have made the terribly difficult decision to resign from the Labour Party. It is the greatest honour of my life to represent the people of #EnfieldNorth."
"I will continue to represent and speak up for them as a member of the [Independent Group] of MPs," he added.
The decision came days after British police said they had launched an investigation into allegations of anti-Semitic hate crimes by Labor Party members.
