Inside Corbyn and Sultana's Your Party as Scottish leadership quits

Jeremy Corbyn’s Your Party is facing further woes after “going extinct” in Scotland , with all 12 members of its Scottish executive committee quitting.

Your Party’s Interim Scottish Executive Committee (ISEC) had been running the Scottish branch of the new liberal party, working as volunteers since late 2025.

It’s understood that Your Party Scotland was organisationally independent from Your Party in England and Wales, but they’re meant to be working in alliance with each other.

However, the entire Scotland team has resigned en masse, previously alleging they had been “blocked” and “ignored,” among other things, by the party’s HQ in London.

Reports say that the resignations followed a 200-strong meeting of Your Party Scotland on April 12, during which members claimed they had been ignored and disregarded.

In the resignation statement, Scottish members vowed to move forward “but to do so without the constraints of the deeply flawed and dying Your Party.”
Just last month, members of the executive committee suggested that efforts to establish an independent sister party to fight for Scottish independence had been effectively sidelined.

Instead, members accused HQ of “actively working against” them.

“This is not what any of us signed up to,” their statement reads.

“We all joined because we wanted to build a party that would organise in working-class communities, stand in elections, and put forward a bold socialist programme to take on the far right.

Over the last few weeks, we’ve heard from members all across the country how fed up they are with this situation.”
The effective end of Your Party Scotland marks the latest blow for Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s party, following months of alleged infighting over membership and financial squabbles that has cast uncertainty over the future of the organisation.

Your Party is a new liberal political party formed by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana.

It promises and iams to “take on the privileged few at the top”.

“Your Party aims at its democratic and socialist transformation: by redistributing that power and wealth to all,” it says on its website.

What challenges have they faced?

The end of Your Party Scotland is the latest in a growing list of setbacks that have dogged the party.

The most noteworthy was a stunning public feud which erupted last year within Your Party ranks, casting doubt on the future of the left-leaning movement.

Everything seemed to be going well last year until registrants received several emails that shed light on what appears to be infighting and chaos among the core ranks.

Emails were sent to people who had signed up to receive notifications from Your Party, informing them that the membership portal was now open.

It took people to a page where they could sign up for paid membership, either through a monthly subscription or an annual payment.

According to Sultana, some 20,000 people had signed up for paid membership.

Several hours later, an email with the subject header: “URGENT EMAIL TO ALL YOURPARTY.UK SUPPORTERS” was sent to inboxes.

This email, signed off by the Independent Alliance Group’s five male MPs but omitting Ms Sultana, claimed that the previous email was unauthorised and that people should cancel direct debits.

It read: “This morning, an unauthorised email was sent to all yourparty.uk supporters with details of a supposed membership portal hosted in a new domain name.

Legal advice is being taken.

That email should be ignored by all supporters.

If any direct debits have been set up, they should be immediately cancelled.”
Ms Sultana then took to social media, where she alleged that she had been sidelined in what she describes as a “sexist boys’ club,” and decided to send out the membership call.

“After being sidelined by the MPs named in today’s statement and effectively frozen out of the official accounts, I took the step of launching a membership portal so that supporters could continue to engage and organise,” she said.

Many have expressed concern following the spat, suggesting that they are more likely to vote Green and support a more united party.

A London resident who asked to remain anonymous told The London Standard that they were one of many who had paid to register for Your Party last year.

Following the fallout, they want their money back.

Trying to see the funny side, one person on Twitter referenced a relatable Monty Python scene: “This is going to end up in a People's Front of Judea vs The Judean People's Front situation isn't it.”
There was then another twist when Sultana publicly offered to transfer £600,000 of donations to the party, only to be rebuffed by its other members.

It is understood that MOU Operations currently holds a significant amount of donations that Your Party have been trying to get back, even threatening legal action.
