Published date: 22 August 2025 17:47 BSTNow, he is organising a Gaza Tribunal of his own. “We have on 4 and 5 of September, for two days in Church House in Westminster, an open public inquiry,” Corbyn says.
“It will be live on YouTube and lots of other platforms and channels, and that inquiry will be hearing voices from people in Gaza, in the West Bank, aid workers, journalists, lawyers, international legal experts.”
[Note to our Fedi friends in the UK - it would be great if someone could get this tribunal streamed via Peertube in some fashion.]
The new party was announced on 3 July, when MP Zarah Sultana left the Labour Party and said she would co-lead a different outfit with Corbyn.
That party doesn’t exist yet. It doesn’t even have a name. But it has already received more than 800,000 sign-ups.
Polling this week found that a third of 2024 Labour voters would consider voting for a Corbyn-Sultana-led party, as well as over a quarter of Labour members.
too bad its full of transphobes and corbyn can’t even condemn them and say transphobia has no place in the party.
Jeremy going to great lengths to make sure Labour lose another election. Hat trick!
Lol I mean like since when does Keir do anything but bend down to the Tories and Reform
Keir is doing a great job alienating the base even without Corbyn.
Yeah but he isn’t farage/badenoch
And Badenoch won’t win shit.
Unless there’s a split vote
Still won’t. Most Tory voters will go Libs or Reform. They’ve lost trust and people are unprepared to give them another chance.
Pacts can avoid bad situations but Labour tend to avoid pacts as policy. They seem to want to fall on their own sword.
Transforming British politics by splitting the left so Reform gets in. I respect Jezza, but fear the unintended consequences.
Starmer is not even left — he’s properly into Tory spreadsheet economic algorithms.
If you have a vote in the English/Welsh Greens leadership election vote for Polanski then.
He’s stated a willingness to work with this new party so they don’t put forward candidates in the same seats and compete with each other. The other candidates have done no such thing and are greedily and delusionally running on the idea that they can convince enough people to vote Green that the Green party will be able to enact change on its own.
Labour are not left wing, that is evident from the last year.
The Lib Dems are not left wing and will sell their principles for a whiff of power.
A Polanski led Green Party working in tandem with the Corbyn/Sultana party (and possibly the SNP and Scottish Greens) is the only hope I see of the left enacting any serious change. One of the most important of which being proportional representation.
what left, there’s no leftist party in the UK at the moment
Greens?
A mate of mine calls them bicycle Tories.
It’s funny to me that people use the two party race argument, using reform over conservatives, and not realising the irony in saying the same can’t be done with labour.
Kiers labour is an authoritarian government cosplaying as left wingers. Enforcing the OSA, refusing to even investigate let alone restrict our nations role in the Gaza genocide & appeasing a pseudo-hostile fascist dictator at the expense of the common worker in the UK are all facets of a centre to right gov, rather than left. The party is rotten; full of bad actors only intent on kicking the can further down the same alley.
He needs to be pushing for electoral reform before even thinking about another party.
Scotland has a fair and intelligent system. Make it apply to UK elections.
