Summary

The article discusses the recent split of Your Party, with 250 members forming a new leftwing party called the Socialist Federation. It notes that neither Jeremy Corbyn nor Zarah Sultana are part of this new faction, though many of the departing members belong to Sultana's "Grassroots Left" faction. Corbyn's faction "The Many" has controlled Your Party since he became parliamentary leader in March. The article, written by Guardian columnist Zoe Williams, reflects on the public airing of internal conflicts and personality clashes within the party, lamenting that these distractions overshadowed what the party actually stood for.
