Your Party has had a fractious start. At one point it looked like both Jeremy Corbyn and Zara Sultana might be co-leaders. Is that less likely now? Or is there another candidate waiting in the wings?

Anyone who is elected leader at Your Party’s inaugural conference will resolve YES. If Your Party splits before conference in such a way that there are multiple successor parties who also elect leaders, these will also resolve YES.

If nobody is elected leader of Your Party or subsequent splinter parties by year end, then I will resolve to “No leader elected by market close”.

As this party has made clear statements of being democratic I will not accept anyone who claims leadership without something that at least resembles an election.

As this might be contentious, I will not be betting and am open to any clarifications or queries in the comments.

  • Update 2025-09-25 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): - Resolution will be based on executive power — effectively, who would be Prime Minister if the party won.

    • If there are co-leaders, all co-leaders resolve YES (a concurrent spokesperson title doesn’t change this).

    • If there is a single leader and a separate spokesperson, only the leader resolves YES; the spokesperson resolves NO.

For reference, I’ll not be resolving Jeremy Corbyn on the basis of the Your Party registration, at this point I’m treating it purely as an administrative thing because conference and election of a leader have not yet happened.

How lenient will you be with non-"leader" leadership titles, or frontman positions alongside a formal collective leadership, like "spokesperson" or "coordinator" or other (actual or nominal) alternatives?

@MmmmpUZO I’m looking at executive power here, if we have co-leaders and one is a spokesperson also then I’d resolve both YES, if we have one leader and one spokesperson then the spokesperson would be NO.

A helpful way of framing how I’m thinking about this would be “if Your Party got a surge in support at the next election, who in the structure is Prime Minister?”
