The “Your Party” in a nutshell…
November 29, 2025 at 10:07 PM
Happening once was bad but twice?
A second speaker has been told off today for calling a transphobe a transphobe.

This time the speaker argued back and then carried on.

The chair is weak so she ultimately sat unsure what to do as the speaker finished.

Fuck ‘your party’ and all who sail in her.
I stand corrected: looks like member motions weren't on the agenda I saw yesterday.

The Conference is now debating on a member motion to include "trans liberation" in their mission.

Two speakers for yes and two for no. 🤨
So, I just looked at the amendments to be voted on at the Your Party conference.

There is no vote on their policy on trans rights.

In fact, there are no real policy motions at all.

All the votes are on administrative, constitutional, or messaging matters.

This is show democracy. It's a scam.

I’m going to be that tranny and say that trans folks don’t just restructure their gender but also their sex.

It is not so much that sex does not exist but that it is rendered meaningless by a (to argue the strongest version of this position) post operative trans femme.

What are the odds on a fistfight between the two leaders at the ‘your party’ conference today?

Clown shoes.

Unmitigated clown shoes.
Corbyn on holding an event at almost the same time as Zarah Sultana's rally last night...

"Zarah spoke [at her] rally, and I very happily, proudly sent a message to that rally, and Zarah sent one to ours.

"I was grateful [for] that support & solidarity...We've got to come together and be united."

Once again I am petitioning for trans femmes to be known by the collective noun ‘Cassandras’ ‘cause we always fucking tell you what will happen and you never fucking listen
smug ass 'your party' advocates have spent a couple months now brushing off our concerns of transphobia while condescendingly saying 'get involved! have a say at the conference!'.

most of us knew better but this is what's happened to someone who actually took that advice and tried to participate.
Yorp conference doing its best to shut down anyone daring to call a transphobe a transphobe.

Zarah Sultana is not attending today's opening day, in solidarity with those excluded for being SWP members (on grounds it is another registered party). Unlike Corbyn, she does not favour a single leader, but both intend to stand if a single leader model chosen

Should do a ranked list…
I am shocked that ‘fanny and alexander,’ ‘anna and the apocalypse,’ ‘meet me in st Louis’ and alex cox’s ‘three businessmen’ didn’t make the list of great Christmas films.

People have no taste.

Popcorn time!

Jenny Watson's recent Substack posts seem to indicate internal strains and stresses in the GC
community.

It's always worth remembering that sooner or later terrible people are terrible to each other.
