This is The Guardian.

It's fair to say it's been a very bitter and acrimonious battle.

What I want is the party to be outward looking, engage with the community and able to attract

a very broad range of support. We cannot be a narrow inward looking organisation. Can they prove

the factual battles are over? Can a healthy culture be created? And I guess the question is,

what is your party's distinct offer? What are people

being offered that the Green Party isn't? Jeremy Corbyn has won out over his rival Zara Sultanah

for leadership of the troubled your party. Can this be a new start for the movement?

From The Guardians Today in Focus, this is the latest with me, Lucy Hoff.

I'm joined by Owen Jones, a Guardian columnist. It's great to see, Owen. Thanks for dialing in.

So we're talking about your party, obviously the grassroots Labour alternative set up by

Jeremy Corbyn and Zara Sultanate last year, a political

project that has sadly been beset by fractiousness, infighting various financial and legal

wranglings. We've now got to the moment we've all been waiting for, I'm sure many people

have been waiting for, which is the central executive

committee elections. We'll come on to what they are in a sec as well. But crucially, what this

means is kind of an end to the battle of ego between Sultana and Corbyn, who has won as parliamentary

leader. Can you explain what's happened? Yeah, so basically this is the CEC, as you say,

which is the governing body of the new party. And so according to their figures, by the way,

it's about 40, nearly 41,000 members. Bear in mind, 800,000 people originally signed up their

interest in the party. So obviously the vast majority of those haven't become members after all the

rangles and all the rest of it.
