JEREMY CORBYN is set to be named parliamentary leader of Your Party after the election of its first central executive, with a mission to get the troubled party “back on track.”
Candidates endorsed by the For the Many slate, backed by Mr Corbyn, won 14 of the 24 seats on the executive.
The party’s other co-founder, Zarah Sultana, was herself elected, but the Grassroots Left slate she endorsed had only seven candidates elected, all of them women.
In the ‘endorsements’ phase, during which Your Party members could endorse candidates they wished to see on the ballot, Jeremy Corbyn’s ‘The Many’ was leading in 12 seats, while Zarah Sultana’s ‘Grassroots Left’ led in another 10, alongside two Independent candidates.
(,..)
11,414 members took part. Over 350 members put themselves forward as candidates. More than 80 progressed to the next stage, the majority of which are Independents.
Join Jeremy Corbyn and The Many’s candidate for the North East region, Hannah Hawkins in Middlesbrough this Wednesday 11th of February.
An evening of discussion on the crises facing the country and the role Your Party can play in addressing them!
Getting Your Party back on track means campaigning tirelessly on the issues that matter most to people, from the cost-of-living to opposing racism and war.
But it also means empowering Your Party members to organise most effectively and make decisions collectively. For that, we need iron-clad democratic commitments that ensure all members can play their full part — not democratic posturing behind which small sects seek outsized influence.
So here are The Many’s six priorities to build a truly member-led party:
1. Set Up Official Branches — so all members can get organised.
2. Defend OMOV — so all members get to decide, not the sects.
3. Establish Members’ Policy Commissions — so policies are shaped by the people they will affect.
4. Review the Finances and Data — so all members can have trust, nothing off limits.
5. Organise the Liberation Sections — so members from every background are empowered.
6. Report Back Monthly — so the collective leadership is accountable to all members, not just itself.
Gaza may not be in the headlines, but make no mistake: the genocide continues.
Occupation continues.
Apartheid continues.
Your Party emerged from the mass movement for Palestine – and it needs to be at the heart of that struggle.
So if elected to lead Your Party, The Many are pleased to announce what our first national campaign will be: no complicity in Israeli Apartheid

Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s slates are at level pegging in the battle to lead Your Party, with less than a week until the organisation holds internal elections.
The endorsement phase – in which members were able to endorse candidates they wish to see on the ballot for elections to Your Party’s central executive committee – closed on Thursday 29 January. Corbyn’s slate – The Many – are leading in 12 seats, while Grassroots Left, which Sultana is attached to, are leading in 10.

Read Laura Smith’s article in the Morning Star. People have been let down again and again. By governments that manage decline instead of challenging it. By parties that talk about fairness while entrenching inequality. By institutions that seem distant, unaccountable, and deaf to everyday reality.
But recognising that failure is not enough. We are here because we believe something fundamentally different is possible. Not cosmetic change. Not a rebranding of the same failed politics. But a credible alternative — rooted in organisation, democracy, and community power.
In Your Party, we have to do things differently. That’s why The Many is announcing the Socialist Leadership Programme: If we are elected to Your Party’s Central Executive Committee, we will establish this programme to identify, educate and train a new generation of working-class socialist leaders.
These are leaders who will represent the full breath of our coalition: Old and young, from all faiths and none, and from every corner of Britain. Leaders built up not from Westminster and the professional political class, but from community campaigns, workplace struggles, and social movements. Leaders who won’t just posture, but will build real power.
We need an alternative – and this requires more than just a different policy position. It requires a new kind of politics: one that harnesses the unifying power of solidarity to defeat the divisive tactic of scapegoating. One that unites working class people in all their diversity and empowers communities to wage campaigns where they live and work. One that stops treating politics as something that is done to people – and starts treating politics as something that is done by people.
This imperative led to the birth of Your Party. The surge of community-based victories in recent years – from the remarkable success of independent candidates in the 2024 general election, to the blossoming of local community independent groups in councils all over the country – demonstrated a demand for an alternative to the failed establishment politics.
