THOUSANDS are set to gather in Liverpool on Saturday for the eagerly awaited inaugural Your Party conference.

Delegates selected through a sortition process, designed to ensure fair representation, will travel from around the country to debate the party’s founding documents at the ACC arena.

With a membership of 50,000, the party is the largest socialist party in Britain in 80 years.

There are hopes the conference will draw a line under the disputes and infighting that have marred the party’s launch.

These included the launch of rival membership systems, disputes over funds, and saw two of the original six MPs involved walk away from the project.

This weekend, members will agree on a founding statement asserting the party’s principles, a constitution and an organisational strategy.

They will also vote on a new leadership model for the party, and decide whether it will be led by a single leader until late 2027, or a “collective leadership model.” No option for co-leadership will be on the ballot.
