Corbyn’s New Party Faces Crisis as Cofounder Misses Conference

Internal conflicts within Jeremy Corbyn’s new left-wing party, Your Party, intensified as cofounder Zarah Sultana skipped the inaugural conference in protest of member expulsions linked to alleged ties with the Socialist Workers Party. Corbyn urged unity among members amid the party’s chaotic launch, while Sultana criticized the treatment of expelled members, likening it to past issues in the Labour Party. As the conference proceeds, key decisions on the party’s name and leadership structure are to be made. This turmoil reflects the broader fragmentation of British politics as Labour shifts rightward.
