Your Party leadership urged to share membership data to help set up local branches

JEREMY CORBYN and Zarah Sultana have been urged to share membership data from Your Party’s 800,000 supporters to help form local branches.

Nearly 200 sign-ups to the project to form a new left-wing party had today a petition stating that “work must start now to build strong local branches in every town and city” ahead of its founding conference planned in November.

A spokesman for the Give Us The Tools campaign warned that a lack of engagement is a “kiss of death” for a nascent socialist party for which hundreds of “proto-branches” have already been set up.

“My worry is it’s going to be Labour 2.0 — people that have got fed up with Starmer but don’t think the Labour Party is a problem,” he said.

“It’s all going to be kicked into the long grass until the new year, people are there anxious to start fighting and want to get organised.”
