Zarah Sultana, a British Member of Parliament representing Coventry South, has resigned from the Labour Party after 14 years to co-lead the formation of a new left-wing political party alongside former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. Sultana cited dissatisfaction with the current Labour leadership under Sir Keir Starmer, particularly criticizing the government's support for Israel's war on Gaza, which she described as active participation in genocide. She expressed a desire to build a party focused on peace and social justice, offering an alternative to the existing two-party system. While Sultana announced her intention to co-lead the new party with Corbyn, the former Labour leader initially did not confirm his involvement and reportedly was upset about the announcement being made without his prior agreement. However, Corbyn later acknowledged ongoing discussions about the new party and indicated that its democratic foundations would soon take shape, pledging that "real change is coming." The new party is expected to appeal to disaffected Labour supporters, especially those aligned with Corbyn's left-wing base, and could potentially impact Labour's voter base ahead of the 2029 general election. The development marks a notable fracture within the Labour Party, with some commentators suggesting it could siphon off votes, particularly from Muslim communities. The new party's name has not yet been announced, and discussions about its structure and leadership continue.
