Corbyn and Sultana at odds over Your Party leadership as conference opens

Delegates to choose between electing a single leader or a collective of lay members to run the leftwing movement

The two most prominent figures in Your Party are still divided over how it should be run as its inaugural conference kicked off this weekend.

Jeremy Corbyn confirmed to journalists on Saturday that he preferred a single leader and is likely to stand for the role but Zarah Sultana, his co-founder, said she would vote for collective leadership and that she does not believe parties should be run by “sole personalities”.
