After today's CEC meeting, the Corbyn clique now entirely controls the 'Officers Group', which will run Your Party with the 'secretariat' (ie, Karie Murphy). Oh and the discussion on branch recognition was simply dropped. Going well this. 🫠🫠

Every YP CeC meeting is going to be followed by 13 reports from each member which are 95% the same and 5% barely disguised snark. Just make the meetings open for all to observe, I'm begging you

If elected to the Central Executive Committee, I intended to move a resolution to the effect that this programme - Workers Deserve the Earth - serve as the interim programme of @thisisyourparty til national conference. In the spirit of transparency, you can read it here. 👇👇👇

@maxshanly @MPlevin @thisisyourparty Of course theyre politicsl, theyre a cog in a political party, but they are the business end. Its the members who will set the policy and organisational direction. Theyre there to look after the day-to-day smooth running of the party according to the wishes of the membership.

It is literally the collective political leadership of the party; that's its constitutional role, it's not a Board of Trustees or Management Committee. It's meant to lead the membership politically, it's the reason it exists.

@EmilyThornberry In other words, you never anticipated the severity of the response. Hotheads and potheads, never a great combination.

Wars are only ever resolved through negotiation. It’s tragic that calm heads did not prevail in the US when the Omani Foreign Minister said, just hours before the bombing started, that a peace deal was within reach. And now hotheads in Iran think it’s a good idea to bomb Oman.

@maxshanly @MPlevin @thisisyourparty Michelle is abolutely correct, the CEC is the business end of the party, theyre not the policy makers. Thats our job. They're there to be guided by the membership, not lead them. Just like JC did when he was LOTO. Zarah dictated policy and failed. Now the members will create it.

@maxshanly @thisisyourparty That's probably the next stage now, instead of arguing let's both sides get together to talk policy. If it's acceptable to both sides then it's got to be a contender.

There’s not a political programme for YP nearly as coherent as this. We need to be talking about 5. Total decommodification of housing, not whether we succumb to Green social democracy. Look where this took Biden and Macron

@maxshanly @thisisyourparty That manifesto was incredible, the vast majority still valid today. It was a huge improvement on the 2017 manifesto and I hope our next one will take another equally huge leap forward. Abolish student fees Renationalise utilities Fully fund NHS Fair taxation What's not to like?

@maxshanly @thisisyourparty Hilarious how you blame the loss of the 2019 election on the manifesto and not the hostility of the smear campaigns snd hostile press.

@l1ttleherbert @thisisyourparty So what you're saying is we should base our policies on a seven year old and thus extremely out of date manifesto that lost an election? Good luck with that m8.

Your Party collective leadership elected members have not had any contact from the party and yet @thisisyourparty is making announcements. Who is authorising those? According to election rules the new leadership team takes office today.

It'd be good to show some deference and involve your co-leaders in strategic calls of this magnitude. Specially under the risk of deeming the project superfluous, obsolete, and redundant out of the gate in light of the Greens. Why not focus on YP policy rather than a GP alliance?
Jeremy Corbyn@jeremycorbyn

Congratulations to Hannah Spencer on a stunning victory. Proud to support a campaign built on hope and humanity. Under our new leadership team, Your Party will work constructively with the Greens, because there is only one way we can bring about real change: together.

@InacioVieira Policy commissions are on their way @InacioVieira. But they probably wont include: 1 Abolishing the Monarchy 2. Nationalising "everything' or 3. Forcing public office holders to donate half their wages to the party.

My instant analysis of @thisisyourparty's CEC results: the triumphant @jeremycorbyn camp needs the @zarahsultana camp more than it thinks. There's no public profile without Corbyn, but no national movement without the grassroots, of which Sultana has become the voice.

@InacioVieira For a moment I thought you could actually write, you presented Novaras green bias majestically. Tragically as soon as you mentioned witch-hunts it all fell apart and into the gutter. Id suggest a rewrite focusing on facts. Inacio, you may not like it but, we are the grass roots.

Ash Sarkar, speaking at a Novara Media event on 16/02, declared: “I think YP as a national political project is dead. It’s gone. And everyone should stop trying to defibrillate the patient and let it go with some dignity.” READ: inacioinvita.substack.com/p/your-party-i…
