A group of members have split from Your Party, citing frustration with Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership and accusing the party of having “squandered the enormous promise of 800,000 signups last summer.”

On Sunday, 250 people – many of whom are members of Your Party’s branches in England, Scotland and Wales – joined a Zoom call and voted to found a new left-wing party, called Socialist Federation.

Among them were several members of Grassroots Left – the slate on which Zarah Sultana ran in the Your Party elections earlier this year – including the former Momentum organiser Max Shanly (though he briefly attended the conference, Shanly is not a member of the Socialist Federation). A source close to Sultana confirmed that she does not have any involvement in the founding of this new party.

Corbyn won election as the parliamentary leader of Your Party in late February this year with his slate The Many, winning 14 seats on the party’s Central Executive Committee, to Grassroots Left’s seven. Grace Lewis, a former independent councillor in Coventry, was also elected to the CEC alongside Sultana as part of the Grassroots Left slate, but has since quit the committee and is joining Socialist Federation. Lewis was elected as a public office holder, but lost her seat in the local elections and thereby quit the CEC.

Your Party’s first electoral test came in May, when the party supported several independent groups in the local elections. The party also stood 20 candidates in 17 wards but none were elected. Its profile has somewhat diminished since the start of this year.

In an opening statement shared on X, the new group said its members had “lost patience” with Your Party and Corbyn, and accused the party of showing “only contempt” for its grassroots supporters. It continued: “Socialist Federation is an interim organisation with a longer-term goal. We want to rally forces to form something neither Labour nor the Greens can claim to be: a party with unwavering socialist principles, that actively builds working class power in communities and workplaces.”

The group plans to hold a national conference on 28 June, with an in-person Congress taking place in the Midlands later this year. They did not respond to the New Statesman’s request for comment.

Responding, a Your Party spokesperson said: “Our focus remains on building a broad, democratic, socialist party capable of delivering meaningful change.” They added that new members are joining Your Party every day and said: “Our priority is supporting members to organise in their communities and building a movement capable of challenging both this Labour government and the growing threat of the far right.”

Oh, I see - I didn't realise you could trade a card and it keeps the gold frame. I don't actually have that many with gold frames, partly because I've been sharing with others, but I think I have a few you could use. I'll start offering trades and just refuse or message me if it's not something you want.

Edit: I don't really like gold frames, so please just trade normal cards

I've been sharing low-rarity cards, but I'm happy to trade as well if you want to speed it up - I just don't know if it's worth the shinedust/trade stamina for you.

I have duplicates of shiny Growlithe, shiny Hypno, [edit: shiny Charcadet], and full-art Sabrina that I'm happy to trade for anything I don't already have.

~~I'd really like two copie of B1 Arcanine (2 diamond), so if anyone wants to trade or share, please do!~~

Otherwise I'm still trying to complete most diamond collections (probably impossible) so will trade if I can.

In response to the accusations, Theresa Arnold told the Sheffield Star that the tattoo had been “misunderstood” and was connected to her husband’s brief interest in Buddhism when he was younger.

“In his late teens, my husband briefly explored Buddhism and had a symbol tattooed on his arm during that period,” she said.

Imagine paying £4k for a pen. One pen.

Nothing got me that interested in the trailer, but the idea of having an ancient deck or a future deck is interesting. They're all basics, so they could be really consistent ... but the energy cost is so high that it's dependent on getting the supporter for energy. I presume this is going to be a small pack (~69 cards).

I'd like try removing Rapidash to make a Ninetales/Arcanine deck, but then I'd probably end up removing Blaine as well and it would be even worse. I'm still going to try it, though.

I'm not sure why Suicune decks aren't more popular right now, although the draw ability can work against it a bit when everyone has copycat.

Mega Blaziken is a decent deck, and I imagine amost everyone has the cards to actually run it, so it's really accessible. If I wanted a more competitive deck, it's probably what I'd use.

Maybe I'll make the same kind of post when I do it... Nice idea with Chingling. It reduces the chance of leading with torchic and not being able to do anything. At the same time, I'm scared of being able to play only Chingling for the first two turns and getting knocked out immediately.

I just did one battle last season to get my ~80 hourglasses, but I'm going to try and climb a couple of ranks this time. I'll see how sick of it I get.

Apparently pronounced Rheen ap Yorr-werth for anyone scared of trying to say his name in public (me)

Yeah, it's fine even if you don't really want it - I just thought I'd check since it was on your wishlist
