Jeremy Corbyn Launches New Left-Wing Political Force
Jeremy Corbyn, the former Labour leader, isn’t fading into the political background. Instead, he’s back in the spotlight with a bold new move—a fresh political party rolled out on July 24, 2025, right alongside fellow MP Zarah Sultana. This party, temporarily called ‘Your Party,’ already looks more like a wave than a ripple. Corbyn revealed that people are joining at a rate of about 500 per minute. For context, that’s more than a packed football ground’s worth every half hour.
For now, the party’s permanent name is still up for grabs. The founding team wants members to have the final word during an autumn 2025 conference, a push to hammer home their ‘bottom-up’ way of working. Corbyn says, “it’s your party”—and he’s inviting would-be supporters to shape its entire direction.
Policies: Wealth Redistribution and Social Change
This party isn’t hiding its intentions. Its platform is designed around a left-wing punch—‘mass redistribution of wealth and power’ and nationalization at its core. The party line is simple: the government should own more, so everyone can have more. Key proposals include nationalizing industries like energy and rail, which have seen price hikes and private investments over the last decade. Add to that a real focus on social housing, with plans to invest public money into genuinely affordable homes at scale.
Healthcare is another big talking point. Corbyn and Sultana want to block any NHS privatization. Instead, they’re vowing to put fresh money into the public service and protect it from creeping private contracts—a message aimed right at voters who fear for the future of the NHS.
The party also commits to tackling climate change: boosting renewable energy, ending fossil fuel reliance, and ramping up investment in green jobs. On top of this, they haven’t shied away from foreign policy. ‘Your Party’ is promising clear support for Palestinian rights, particularly in Gaza, and wants the government to challenge the status quo in UK foreign policy.
There’s also a pledge to protect the right to protest. With recent clampdowns leading to high-profile arrests, the party says it’ll fight against restrictions on public demonstrations and push for renewed civil liberties.
If you’re wondering how serious they are about disrupting the political order, consider this: the organisers are already preparing candidates to stand in the 2026 local elections. Even though the party isn’t yet registered with the Electoral Commission, organisers say that’s coming soon—and they’re not wasting time getting people signed up and policy ideas flowing.
Zarah Sultana’s involvement adds another layer. She was suspended from Labour for voting against government policies—now, she’s helping to guide this new left-wing force, aiming directly at voters who feel let down by Labour and the Conservatives alike.
The British left, often fractured or sidelined by larger parties, suddenly seems louder. Whether ‘Your Party’ is just another brief political experiment or the start of something bigger, one thing’s clear: the appetite for radical change is growing—and Corbyn’s new project is aiming to catch that momentum while it’s hot.
