Overview
- Zarah Sultana said she will not pursue legal proceedings and is seeking reconciliation with Jeremy Corbyn following last week’s public split over Your Party’s membership sign-ups.
- The Information Commissioner’s Office confirmed it has received a report about the membership system and is assessing the information provided.
- MOU Operations Ltd, which processes donations, told supporters funds are secure, said neither Sultana nor Corbyn has received money, and disclosed failed mediation attempts alongside concerns about governance and transparency.
- At least 20,000 people paid £55 via the portal Sultana launched, which Corbyn and allied Independent MPs denounced as a “false” or unauthorised system while urging cancellations.
- Corbyn and Sultana are preparing a new membership launch this week without a joint public line, according to the Guardian, as organisers still plan a November founding conference and cite hundreds of thousands of initial sign-ups.
