Your Partys Absence in Scottish Elections: A Blow to Eco-Socialists

Your Party, the socialist group founded by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana, has decided not to run candidates in the 2026 Scottish Parliament elections due to logistical challenges. The partys central executive committee failed to discuss or approve proposals before key deadlines, leaving no time for candidate submissions. This decision has frustrated local activists, with some resigning over unfulfilled promises. Party chair Jenn Forbes announced plans for member-led initiatives in Scotland and Wales, but the absence of Your Party may benefit the Scottish Greens, who share eco-socialist values.
