Mr Kilroy-Silk came up to me and said he wanted to have a word...I tried to get away from him but he barred my way.
He is a very big bloke. I am about 5ft. 10, but he is much bigger than me. I understand he was an amateur boxer, but I am an amateur runner.

I've seen him listed as 5'10" on an online site! It's great to give him his 50th comment!

Something doesn't add up here. Both Jeremy Corbyn and Boris Johnson are stated to be 5ft 9in, yet the video on this linked page suggests that Corbyn is a bit taller: Click Here

I've stood next to him. I'm 5'11.5" and was wearing boots with an inch-thick sole, and he wasn't much shorter than me - he's 5'10", not buying anything less.

Rob's determination looks good to me (the linked pic standing next to Cameron is a reasonable measure), but this dude is late 60's and his peak was likely closer to 5'10

Can we add John McDonnell? You have Sadiq Khan and Jeremy. My guess is 5'11" for McDonnell, he's clearly two inches shorter than Jeremy

I walked pat Jeremy corbyn the other day, as he was visiting a hospital. He was certainly no taller than me and I'm just under 5'8".

Tony Blair was actually downgraded from 6' to 5'11 3/4 in the past little while. That'd make this site a pretty poor propaganda tool if it can't properly deify its subject.

You can see in the following photo that Jeremy is at least the same height has Bliar, who is given 6' on this site. Is celeb heights a Tory Blairite establishment propaganda tool?

5'9 sounds about right, not sure where people are getting 5'8 from, he looks consistently average.

@ miko
It is really unfair to say that, this man seems OK to me. He may scrape 5'8" now or he may be slightly under that.

A nasty individual who I wouldn't vote for with a gun to my head, but he looks like a weak 5'85/5'9 guy who has probably lost half an inch.

lol no way 6ft tall!! 5ft 9 at the very max, more like 5ft 8 and a bit now. The impassioned speech where he and Michael Elivs, both millionaires were rubbishing capitalism to people who had paid £225 a ticket. lol

I cannot believe he is 5'8". He has to be at least 6 feet and probably taller. Did you guys not see the impassioned speech he made at Glastonbury?

I just saw Jeremy Corbyn on TV, mixing with the unhappy crowd of people outside the shocking tower block fire scene in Kensington. He looked of average height, but more importantly, he was hugging and comforting some of the people whose lives have been destroyed. I liked that he showed them some warmth and sympathy.
He gets 5f9.

Remmber him at Labour Party and Union conferences back in the 80's, had a diferent woman with him every time!! would have said about 5ft 9.5 back then and about 5ft 8.5 now. His latest wife looks around 5ft so looks like he taking his daughter for a walk!

He's always given me the impression of being a 173 guy, although I can see how he may have been 5'9 in his prime

This is a bad listing. He looks a solid 5'10 next to Cameron, please change this listing Rob.

5'9" minimum. I strongly doubt he is as low as 5'8" but also anything over a weak 5'10" peak seems unlikely aswell. 175-178 cm range IMO.

Met him during the remain campaign, seemed my height no more (I'm 5'8" in the morning) so I'd say he's 5'8" at his age.

Seems fairly accurate, Rob (5ft8in-5ft9in range). Kezia Dugdale stands almost as tall as him (she usually wears flats) and taller when she wears high heels. I like how Sturgeon avoids standing next to her during photo shoots..

Not 190 cm but I could buy maybe 178 cm ish, though with Cameron he does look 175 cm at best.

@heightmaster.., your estimate of 6'3 is extremist and the only way to deal with this is through extreme vetting.....extreme vetting.

Jeremy is way taller than this. He is well over six feet. His broad muscular build fools people into thinking that he's shorter than he is.
I was standing not far from him and he has to be at least 6'2" or 6'3". The 5'9" is just put in there by the MSM and people trying to discredit him.

Only ? I though 5'10 was nearer and even closer to 5'11 at peak but to be fair I haven't seen him enough to give a fair answer. I'd say maybe 5'9.5".
