The new Corbyn-Sultana party may be the most sinister Britain has seen in decades

The proposed breakaway outfit is an extremist alliance between terrorist supporting Islamists and the hard-Left

Not since Pulp and the Pyramid Stage were united in perfect harmony in 1995 has the Glasto crowd been this excited about a new partnership.

They once chanted: “Oh, Jeremy Corbyn” to the beat of the White Stripes’ Seven Nation Army. They have since declared “death, death” to an actual army, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

Now, as if by some Eavis-inspired magic, these two worlds have collided to produce Jeremy Corbyn: The Sequel, guest-starring Zarah Sultana.

Although the Marxist mash-up is yet to be officially confirmed, we understand the former Labour MPs are unified by a desire to harness Left-wing and Muslim anger to defeat centrists such as Wes Streeting at the next election. Heady stuff.

In a social media post, Sultana said the Government is “an active participant in genocide” in Gaza and highlighted growing poverty, Labour’s position on welfare, and the cost of living as reasons for establishing her new party.

“Labour has completely failed to improve people’s lives. And across the political establishment, from Farage to Starmer, they smear people of conscience trying to stop a genocide in Gaza as terrorists. But the truth is clear: this Government is an active participant in genocide. And the British people oppose it.”

In fact, a majority of Britons (55 per cent) do not view Israel’s actions as genocidal, according to the latest YouGov poll, but pro-Palestinian fanatics have never been very good with facts.

Corbyn, never a man in much of a hurry, has not yet broken his silence to say whether or not he supports the new party Sultana claims to have set up with him. As soon as he does, we can surely expect a slow pilgrimage of so-called “progressives” to Islington North, where all new members will be given rainbow “Queers for Palestine” badges and keffiyeh scarves.

Disappointingly, old Compo’s lefty pals John McDonnell and Diane Abbott have refused to sign up. Clive Lewis, the Labour MP for Norwich, who once had to apologise for using the phrase: “Get on your knees, bitch” has also sadly ruled himself out as a future minister for women and equalities. Shame.

Sultana famously once said she would “celebrate” the deaths of Tony Blair and Benjamin Netanyahu – yet claims to espouse a “socialism without barbarism”.

I’m not so sure. I’m not certain someone like Sultana – the MP for Coventry South who lost the Labour whip soon after being re-elected in 2024 – should be considered an expert on barbarism. She once wrote of her support for “violent resistance” by Palestinians.

Sultana has been accused of using racist slurs while a student at Birmingham University, when she described a Jewish student as a “YT” (whitey) in a Facebook post. In 2015, the 31-year-old, who sat on the national executives of both Young Labour and the National Union of Students, posted on Twitter: “Yay, the white woman didn’t win the Ethnic Minorities Officer Election!”

Yay, indeed!

She has previously criticised the police and the monarchy. In 2014, she posted: “Can we get rid of the monarchy while we’re fighting the establishment and its institutions? Viva la revolucion!”

In 2015, she tweeted: “Solidarity with those protesting in London right now. Keep safe from the thugs that are the police.” Although she later apologised for her comments about the police, she denies any suggestion she is an anti-Semite, insisting: “As an anti-racist campaigner and a Muslim, I’m committed to fighting racism in all its forms and I know that these forms are interconnected and must be fought collectively.”

Which brings us nicely on to Corbyn, who similarly claims to be a lifelong “anti-racism campaigner”, despite presiding over the Labour Party when a number of Jewish MPs and members were forced out.

In 2016, the 76-year-old said he regretted once describing Hamas and Hezbollah as “friends”. The admission came two years after he attended a wreath-laying in Tunisia for Palestinian leaders linked to the Black September group which carried out a terror attack on the 1972 Munich Olympics, killing 11 people Israelis.

Corbyn insisted he was primarily there to pay his respects to the victims of a 1985 Israeli airstrike on Palestinian Liberation Organisation offices in Tunis. Despite being pictured holding a wreath, he said: “I was present at that wreath-laying, I don’t think I was actually involved in it.” Right, Jezza.

The important thing to note here is that this isn’t Change UK, dreadful though Anna Soubry is.

This has the potential to be a political force more frightening than anything Britain has ever known.

Despite Sultana’s insistence that she is standing up for an “island that’s suffering” – she is not actually interested in the needs of British citizens; her primary aim is to “free Palestine”. The clue is in the line that she wants “money spent on public services, not forever wars”.

Similarly, her suggestion that “we need homes and lives we can actually afford, not rip-off bills we pay every month to a tiny elite bathing in cash,” suggests that she is , in fact, more than content with waging a “forever war” when it comes to class. Or against those she disagrees with, who in her mind are either Tory scum, Zionist scum, racist scum or, of course, genocidal maniacs.

Contrary to preaching “gentler, kinder” politics, Corbyn and Sultana are the high priest and princess of the kind of nasty, vindictive, and divisive hard-Left ideology that saw the Jewish former Labour MP Luciana Berger require police protection to attend the Labour Party conference in 2018.

Given half the chance, they would impoverish us in their communist quest for a more “equal” society and would revel in our immiseration, believing that we must pay for the sins of empire.

Sultana describes Farage as a “grifter”. Yet in her and Corbyn we have the ultimate pair of political fraudsters, purporting to represent the many when, in fact, they are simply a mouthpiece for a vocal minority of deranged zealots.
