Your Party Splits in Two: What Next?

TL;DR

Jeremy Corbyn and Zara Sultana's new left-wing party is collapsing amid a purge of socialist members and the mass resignation of its entire Scottish executive committee.

Key Points

  • 1.Your Party launched in crisis from the start. Founded in summer 2025 as a home for left-wing voters alienated by Starmer's Labour, it immediately suffered public infighting, an unauthorized membership launch, and MP Adnan Hussein quitting in November over 'persistent infighting.'
  • 2.The CEC's April 12th decision triggered purge allegations. Despite 69.2% of members voting to allow dual membership at the inaugural conference, the Central Executive Committee banned members belonging to a list of socialist organisations, which Sultana's camp condemned as expelling the party's left wing.
  • 3.All 12 members of the Scottish Executive Committee resigned en masse. They cited constant undermining by the UK party, being unable to run candidates in the Holyrood election despite 69.8% of Scottish members voting for it, and plans to install an unelected leadership to re-examine already-decided votes.
  • 4.The party's polling has collapsed dramatically. Consideration for voting Your Party dropped from 18% in July to 12% by November, and the most recent YouGov voter intention poll puts the party at literally 0%, down from 1% the prior month.
  • 5.Greens appear to be the primary beneficiary of Your Party's collapse. 85% of Your Party voters said they were open to voting Green, and with the Greens rising from ~13% to ~18%, many former Your Party supporters appear to have already switched, possibly irreversibly.
