The leftwing party formed by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana has unveiled a shortlist of four potential names for its members to choose from: Your Party, Our Party, Popular Alliance, and For The Many.
Ahead of its first conference in Liverpool this weekend, the party's 50,000 members are being asked to vote on the official name, with the result to be announced by Corbyn on Sunday. The organisation was temporarily named Your Party when launched over the summer, but has since faced internal disputes.
Disagreements between Corbyn and Sultana over the launch and handling of membership funds have been reported. The party attracted independent MPs including Ayoub Khan and Shockat Adam, but two others, Iqbal Mohamed and Adnan Hussain, have already quit amid infighting.
Over 2,500 members, selected via lottery, are expected to attend the conference. They will decide on the party's structures, programme, and strategy, including whether to adopt a single leader or a collective leadership model, and whether to support socialist independents in the 2026 English local elections.
Corbyn said: 'I am very excited to get this party started and begin the work of building a majority for real political change.' Sultana added: 'We're building a new kind of party – rooted in and democratically accountable to a mass movement.'
