Unquestionably, the biggest news story of 2025 was [800,000 people registering interest in Your Party](https://news.sky.com/story/jeremy-corbyn-reveals-the-number-of-people-who-have-joined-your-party-13463413?ref=rogerhallam.com) – the new leftwing political party founded by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana – when it launched in the summer. I was about to get out of prison at the time and, in a slightly mad rush, wrote a short book called [Your Party: Grasping the Enormity of the Moment](https://rev21.earth/product/your-party-paperback/?ref=rogerhallam.com) during my last ten days inside. 

The day after I got out, I gave a presentation to Sultana and her team on how they could get 1.5 million people plus to sign up to the party, using Zoom calls and a national door-knocking campaign. Everyone was going, “Wow, yes, let’s do it.”

Alas, it was not to be. But that is not the story here.

No nonsense. Change your mind anytime.

The story is that there is massive social repression in this end-times historical moment, and as soon as people see an escape route from our descent into a hell of rupture, collapse, and fascism, millions of people are going to rush towards it.

The huge show of interest in a new leftwing political formation is just one indicator of our collective desperation and desire. The question, of course, is who is going to provide that pathway, and whether they will provide it in time. And if and when it happens, it will be the biggest news story of all time.
