Was genuinely excited for this group.
And then they go ahead and do the exact same thing every other party is doing.
Guess I should be thankful. It’s made me back the Greens all the way now.

Truly, the Judean Peoples Front is ever green
This is really the best the left has to offer?

They are moving fast not even had their first party conference and there is a split already. I wonder what their conference will be like or will they even get there.

I predicted this. They’ve gained massive traction / foundation with a very Muslim voting base due to their stance on Israel / Gaza but that does come with some more traditional views on social policy, especially when it comes to LGBT issues.
I think a lot of potential supporters will be in for bit of a shock when they find out about Jezzas stance on Brexit and Ukraine.

That’s the problem with left wing groups, far too many spend most of their time arguing with each other while the right wing tends to unify faster.

so here we go another left wing party splitting apart before its even gets going.

Adnan Hussain, who will become one of the group’s six MPs, said last week that trans women are “not biologically women”.
Well, they’re not? I literally support trans people being whatever they want to be and I respect their pronouns and see them as their chosen gender but saying “they’re not **biologically** women” is a correct statement.
As for safe third spaces – as someone who went to a university with many unisex toilets, they are something I’d rather in general. They’re cleaner, all cubicles and well separated and just much nicer to use.

Is the party split or are there just different MPs with different opinions on some subjects and that’s not really a big deal because we are all just human beings?

Who would have guessed a rabble of single-issue Gaza MPs and Corbyn would have conflicting views on trans issues. I’m absolutely stunned, honestly.

Amazing how much press a party which hasnt even been founded yet is getting. Just shows how much Labour are leaving on the table with their right wing turn.
They do not have a name or a policy platform. Lets wait until we see what that is before deciding their views on trans rights etc.
The article reads as more blatant propaganda from the right-wing press who obviously see them as a threat. I am not sure tbh, cant see them being a national force but happy to see what they do.

Expected, thr Left while it seems fairly uniform and so from afar it really is not.
Plus his support and his policies.. that’s a rather complicated group of influences.
So yeah. Starting a new left party. Is not and never easy

islamist party, I called this weeks ago.
We haven’t spent decades minimising the christian supremacist domination of British politics, to hand them over to islamists.

We need a party that’s just “The Rights Party”. They’re all about social rights and that is their main focus, no ambiguity or splitting.

And once again the left-wing parties eat themselves over relatively small issues

Can’t the socialist purity party agree on anything other than “the West is bad”?
ReligiousGhoul on
Lmao, called this the first few days they formed (and received plenty of downvotes for it too).
Who’d have thought combining a group of people of such strong religious faith they entered politics because of it and people who left their original party partially over trans policy would butt heads over this??

The inevitable far left purity test infighting didn’t take long

The right is united by hate. The left is divided by everything else.
