Description

After months of deliberation it’s been decided, it’s not our party, it’s not their party, it’s Your Party.


This weekend, thousands of the new left party’s delegates flooded into a conference centre in Liverpool to try and decide the future life and fate of the movement.


But in keeping with the last 5 months of trials and tribulations, in-fighting and spats between the co-founding camps of Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn, things didn’t run smoothly.


Is it his party? Or her party? And is this really what the left in Britain want?


Oli Dugmore is joined by Megan Kenyon, who spent the weekend in the throes of the socialist spectacle.
