UK left-wing MPs to form new socialist party

Jeremy Corbyn said “discussions are ongoing” about the shape of a prospective new political party, after an ex-Labour MP claimed they would “co-lead the founding” of a new outfit.

Former Labour leader Mr Corbyn said that the “foundations of a new kind” of party will “take shape” soon.

And the Greens deputy leader is hoping his party can join forces with them.
