Met Police Probe Your Party Dispute

London's Metropolitan Police are conducting a criminal investigation into a dispute surrounding the founding of Your Party. A police spokesperson said the inquiry began after they received a report in September 2025 regarding alleged unauthorized access to the party's database. The probe stems from internal factional tensions that emerged following the party's summer 2025 establishment by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana.

Police arrested a man on suspicion of violating the 1990 Computer Misuse Act, though he was released without charge pending further inquiries. Officers also interviewed a woman in her 30s under caution in connection with the investigation. Neither individual is a Member of Parliament, and the police have not confirmed which political party the investigation directly relates to in their public statements.

The conflict escalated after Sultana launched a separate membership portal, prompting Corbyn to warn supporters to ignore what he called a “false membership system.” The Information Commissioner’s Office later advised the party in January that the incident may have involved “serious criminal activity” and warranted a police referral. A Your Party spokesperson declined to comment on the ongoing probe, stating the organization's systems are secure and the incident was isolated.
