OK so apparently both Corbyn and Sultana are right. This name won’t be registered with the Electoral Commission and isn’t THE name, it’s just a working title for now. Got it?

Seems obvious they want members to pick the name etc. A political party organised from the grassroots up rather than the top down - in sharp contrast to the likes of Reform or Change UK etc.

You really are totally unprofessional. If you’d done your job of reading the press release properly before spreading your misinformation then there would not have been any confusion. But of course your main priority will be to undermine the credibility of the party at all cost. So far so good.

It's a complete non issue. You are obviously opponents of this endeavour just desperately looking for reasons irrelevant reasons to knock it. For your own sake, I hope you are at least aware of that, because it would be a shame if you had no self awareness at all.

Given that Corbyn seems to favour self-determination for everyone the world over *except* in Scotland, you're right, this nameless party is unlikely to win my vote, but that doesn't mean that I can't also objectively see that launching a party with its name to be confirmed is a shambles.

Again, this is a figment of your juvenile centrist imagination. If the party is to be democratic, as it should be, then the name should be chosen democratically too. You're just a dim twat desperately trying to invent issues because you have no ideology or ideas.

Yeaaaah so "Things are likely to be called the by the name that they are being advertised by" is one that journalists shouldn't need to doubt. It's not a fact vs opinion thing, it's a "how do you communicate basic facts to people" thing.
