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 characterized Westminster as broken and expressed a desire to build a party focused on peace, social justice, and an alternative to the existing two-party system. While Sultana announced she would co-lead the new party with Corbyn, the former Labour leader initially expressed frustration at being blindsided by the announcement and stated that discussions were ongoing regarding the party's formation. Corbyn later confirmed plans to establish a new political party as a hard-left alternative to Labour, emphasizing that "real change is coming" and acknowledging Sultana's role in helping to build a "real alternative." The new party is expected to launch within the next few months and aims to attract disaffected Labour supporters, including those opposed to Starmer's policies. Political analysts suggest the move could fracture the Labour vote, especially among left-wing and Muslim voters, potentially reshaping the UK's political landscape into a multi-party system. The party's name and full platform have yet to be announced, and some traditional allies of Corbyn have not yet endorsed the initiative.
