“Members voted in favour of the ‘collective leadership’ option, with a ‘lay’ chair – who cannot be an MP”
What a ridiculous headline.

“The shock outcome of the leadership vote at the party’s annual conference in Liverpool came after some challenged Mr Corbyn, a lifelong pro-Palestine campaigner, and accused him of being a “Zionist”, apparently for supporting a two-state solution in the Middle East.”
This is too funny.

Yes, but will the new leader be from the Sultana faction of the Party or the Corbyn faction?
Just because these 2 buffoons aren’t standing doesn’t preclude another inevitable run of infighting from the countries least competent Party.

I have to admit I laughed. All that effort only for the membership to vote against having either of them in charge.
>A second option, for a traditional sole leader, which would have seen Mr Corbyn and former Labour MP Ms Sultana battle it out to lead the new party, was rejected by a narrow margin.

All that’s happened is they’re getting a leader who’s not an MP, like is currently the case with the greens. But I guess the headline is technically accurate.

I can sympathise with voting for any other option than either Sultana or Corbyn to be leader. There is a list of people I’d be less happy having lead my chosen political party, but its honestly a fairly short one.
That being said, a collective leadership is just going to be a disaster.

This whole party is such a ridiculous waste of energy.

This is what reddit would look like if it was a political party haha.

This whole thing is an object lesson in how not to start a new party. What with all the infighting and the easily predictable press hatchet job, they just look completely ridiculous.

Your Parth has become a serial joke!
Meanwhile, Zack Polanski and the Green Party are running the show!

I’m still not convinced that Your Party isn’t a secret project to discredit the British left.
Corbyn and Zarah wouldn’t even need to be in on it. He’s permanently befuddled and she is a genuine, bona-fide, 100% moron.

This might actually be the worst run party in history.

I swear this isn’t news and they said this like… months ago, when their conference actually was?

Imagine barring your only two MPs from leading your party.
Full implosion imminent.

Corbyn accused of being a zionist was not on my bingo card. He’ll be going to bed confused tonight.

And just like that the project is over.
The left now only has a party that wants to disarm all nuclear weapons and pull out of nato.

The literal “raving loony party” is better run than this side show

The new series of The Thick of It is too implausible to be believed.

And so the omnishambles rolls on another day. Can Corbyn just retire and can Sultana just go back to Labour now, it’s clear neither of them could even run a bath let alone a party.

Honestly Your party has been a great way to filter out all the BS politicians who just play at being “for the people” so all the ones who are genuinely serious can hopefully get themselves together

Why can’t the left in this country be anything other than a laughable shit show? I’d really like a competent left option please.
