It will surprise no one that Your Party has split. Why can’t the left stick together? | Zoe Williams
L ast weekend, Your Party officially split, with 250 members voting to start a second leftwing party, the Socialist Federation. When Sultana announced its foundation on X last July, Corbyn seemed peeved and surprised, even though he was apparently co-leader. So, it looks like two things: first, a question of who, between the rivals and their hench people, deserves the blame for being so monumentally difficult as personalities that they squandered the goodwill (and data, and crowdfunding potential) of nearly a million people; second, the leftist infighting that onlookers have been mocking since the People’s Front of Judea and the Judean People’s Front.
