Jeremy Corbyn to be Your Party’s parliamentary leader as Zarah Sultana loses out

Jeremy Corbyn’s The Many slate won 14 of 24 Central Executive Committee seats with 61.8% turnout, securing control and likely making him Your Party’s parliamentary leader.

  • On Thursday morning, the party revealed The Many won 14 of the 24 Your Party Central Executive Committee seats to Grassroots Left’s seven, with three independent candidates elected.
  • Following the party’s adoption of a collective leadership model last year, the contest was seen as a proxy‑war between Corbyn and Sultana, who led rival slates.
  • Turnout showed 25,347 votes from 40,985 verified members, a turnout of 61.8%, with Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana elected alongside Laura Smith, Grace Lewis, and Niall Christie.
  • The new CEC will shortly take control, elect an officers' group, and decide if Corbyn becomes the parliamentary leader, as the party seeks stability.
  • Sources close to The Many said the party’s survival depended on winning amid founding controversies: unauthorised membership portal, expulsions, boycotts, with Grassroots Left urging unity and reinstatement before the 7 May local elections.
