Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana have confirmed the launch of a new hard-Left party to fight Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour.

The former Labour leader and his fellow now-independent MP said it was “time for a new kind of political party” in a statement on Thursday.

The pair have invited voters to sign up to the Left-wing faction via the website yourparty.uk, although The Telegraph understands the new project will not be called Your Party and that its name is to be confirmed.

Speaking after the launch, Mr Corbyn said Labour was “full of control freaks” and vowed to also take on Nigel Farage’s Reform UK, which he called “dangerously divisive”.

The website reads: “Sign up to build this party, together. Soon, we’ll host an inaugural founding conference so you can help shape how your party works, what it stands for, and how we organise to win.

“Fill in this form so that Your Party, and the new party that develops from it, can update you on news, activities and ways to get involved.”
