Really pleased to see this intervention from @zarahsultana to sharpen the draft documents ahead of @thisisyourparty conference. This needs to be a party that the working class can exercise democratic control over.
I’ve always fought — and always will — for maximum member democracy. If you believe Your Party should be explicitly socialist, radically democratic, rooted in mass movement and led by our members, not MPs — join me and back these democratic demands: (1/3)

Proud to back @translibgroup — a brilliant grassroots group fighting for trans liberation within Your Party. Their demands are essential for real party democracy. With trans people under unprecedented threat in the UK, I’m proud to always stand with the trans community.

Fifty branches, representing over 36% of UCU members, have now called for @drjogrady to enter unconditional negotiations & remove the threat of punitive deductions against staff. Unite's repeated requests for such talks have had no response. Will she now listen to @ucu members?

People said Starmer couldn't possibly unite the country with one policy. But he has! The whole country, from the neo Nazis to the conservatives to the liberals to the Marxists, is now united in absolutely hating this, and Starmer's govt.
New digital IDs will make it tougher to work illegally in UK, says Starmer

I’m a member of Your Party - and if you haven’t joined yet, you should too. I’ll remain a fierce advocate for the grassroots – and will continue to fight hard for maximum member democracy. For those who joined the previous system: data and membership will be migrated across in

The message from Roland Wycherley MBE to fans in May 2023 ended with this. We had just finished mid table in L1, we now have the realistic prospect of being relegated to non-league & in complete limbo until a new owner is found. It doesn't seem very safe & secure

I don't want my money returned, and I wish you and Jeremy a long and peaceful retirement.
🙏🏽 SHARE The allegations against my friend @karie_muphy & the IA MPs are untrue & unacceptable. The donations by supporters are under the control of a company called MOU. The directors must immediately transfer the money to https://t.co/Q0aMqX86Y2 or return it to the supporters.
