Jeremy Corbyn is set to introduce Run The Jewels at this year's Glastonbury.

The Labour leader was due to appear at last year's event, but cancelled as the Brexit referendum hotted up.

The Guardian reports that Glastonbury founder Michael Eavis will lead Jeremy Corbyn out onto the main stage at this year's festival.

The Saturday afternoon slot will allow Jeremy Corbyn to address the crowd and introduce Run The Jewels, who dedicated their Field Day encore to the Labour Party.

“We’re Corbyn fans, that’s the thing,” Eavis told the Guardian. “He’s got something new and precious, and people are excited about it. He really is the hero of the hour.”

Glastonbury runs between June 21st – 25th.
