Corbyn, Sultana, Your Party and the Struggle for Working Class Political Representation in Britain

Hannah Sell, member of the CWI International Secretariat and General Secretary of the Socialist Party (CWI England & Wales), discusses the Your Party founding conference and the struggle for a new mass workers’ party in Britain, with Sean Figg, from the CWI’s International Secretariat. Your Party’s founding conference has taken place. Unfortunately, on its formal creation, at this stage of the developing process, Your Party falls short of being the new mass workers’ party with a socialist programme that is needed. However, despite this, and despite the attempts of the capitalist media to cast the event in the worst possible light, many of those leaving Your Party’s founding conference in Liverpool on 30 November will do so feeling more positive than they will have done on arrival.
