Your Party was launched in July 2025 and formally registered in September¹, bringing together a broad cross-section of UK activists and left groups. Despite a series of initial controversies, by the time the inaugural conference had begun membership had reached 55,000², making it the largest democratic socialist party in UK history.

The context in which Your Party has developed is a difficult one for the UK working class. As of November 2025, support for the Labour government has fallen below 20%³ and Keir Starmer is the most unpopular Prime Minister on record⁴. Voters have also abandoned the Conservative Party, which is polling even lower than Labour⁵. The largest beneficiaries of all this disillusionment have been the far right Reform UK party. 36% of their supporters are ‘desperate’ or ‘worried’ about their finances⁶. The Green Party has also picked up significant support as a result of disputes within the Your Party base⁷.

At the time of writing it is too early to say how Your Party will fare in the run up to the 2029 general elections. Estimates of their likely support fell from 18% in July to 12% in November, with 85% of those voters also open to voting Green⁸. However, 30% of Green voters have said they would consider backing Your Party, along with 20% of Labour voters and 14% of Lib Dems⁹. With so many swinging voters in the mix, it is now up to the members to win public support. We will revise this summary as further data comes to hand.

In discussing the party’s structure and agenda, members at the inaugural conference (including remote participants) resolved that Your Party should:
• explicitly signal it is a socialist party;
• explicitly signal that the working class is at the heart of the social alliance it seeks to build;
• be a mass party rooted in the broadest possible social alliance;
• adopt a collective leadership model (see below);
• allow dual membership with aligned allied parties;
• allow support for independent socialist candidates;
• open voting at party conferences to all members through online voting systems;
• provide the right to recall local party officers in all members’ meetings¹⁰.

Other excerpts from the Political Statement: ¹¹

• “Our goal is the transfer of wealth and power, now concentrated in the hands of the few, to the overwhelming majority in a democratic, socialist society.”

• “We reject a capitalist order that is responsible for grotesque levels of inequality both at home and abroad. We favour the extension of democracy over the economy, including the public ownership of key sectors and services.”

• “Billionaires and corporations are now in control of our country. Your Party aims at its democratic and socialist transformation: by redistributing that power and wealth to all.”

As one visitor to the Conference observed: “They were centre-left liberals, democratic socialists, anarchists, communists, anarcho-communists and Trotskyites. You couldn’t walk for ten seconds without being handed a political pamphlet.” ¹²

Your Party has no particular regulations regarding factionalism. However, all the signs are that factions will be accepted, or at least tolerated. On the first day of the inaugural Conference several members were expelled because they were also members of the Socialist Workers Party¹³. Members of the Revolutionary Communist Group were also excluded. Many members were shocked by this heavy-handed behaviour. As M.P. Zarah Sultana put it, when she announced she would boycott the conference that day: “…we must build a party that welcomes all socialists.” A clear majority later supported her in this and voted (69% in favour¹⁴) to allow dual membership of approved parties. Deciding which parties are acceptable has been left to the CEC, which will be elected in February. Your Party’s Political Statement suggests an inclusive approach is mandated:

“Our task is to build a mass party for the many, rooted in the broadest possible social alliance…” ¹⁵

Members at the inaugural Conference resolved that the Party should be led by ordinary members elected to the Central Executive Committee (CEC), with the Chair, Vice-chair and Spokesperson serving as the political leadership. In the Party’s second year the CEC will begin a review into different options for leadership models. These will be discussed and voted on as part of the lead up to the National Conference in 2027.

Members’ decisions are binding on all Party representatives, bodies, and office holders. The Constitution allows up to four democratically-elected seats for ‘Organised Sections’, which “might include… social groups such as the LGBTQ+ community, disabled people, minority ethnic communities, women, and young people. This list is not exhaustive.” There will also be a ‘Workers’ Movement Commission’ (WMC) “consisting in senior trade union movement figures, for the Party’s first two years. The WMC shall be tasked with deepening the Party’s relations with trade unions, laying the ground for national affiliations, and drawing up a political and organising strategy to more deeply root the party in the workers’ movement”. ¹⁶

There is provision for national representatives from Scotland and Wales, with: “Members in Scotland and Wales… able to choose to establish their own constitution for the party in the relevant nation.” ¹⁷. On top of this there will be an unspecified number of ‘Policy Implementation Groups’¹⁸, which will be elected to develop national policy after proposals are approved at party conference.

The Constitution allows for “organisations such as trades unions, tenants unions/associations, campaign groups, etc” to affiliate with Your Party.

Your Party has not yet established any formal international links.

As at December 2025, 28 councillors have declared their support for Your Party¹⁹ and the party has four serving MPs: Jeremy Corbyn, Zarah Sultana, Shockat Adam and Ayoub Khan.

At the 2025 Conference it was decided that the Party should prepare for local elections in 2026 with a “bold anti-austerity stand”. As well as fielding candidates they would also endorse and support independent socialist candidates “where there is evidence of candidates being engaged in community campaigning and having the support of their local communities or trade unions branches”. ²⁰

The Party’s strategy for the general elections in 2029 has yet to be decided.
