TLG was set up in response to the announcement of Your Party, aiming to intervene in Your Party to build a member-controlled party to fight for a worker-controlled government, with trans liberation at its core. Our Demands, Member Expectations, and Interim Governance Structure were established to allow us to quickly intervene in the party’s Founding Conference.

Our Interim Governance Structure contains a commitment to draft a new constitution once the position and trajectory of Your Party became clearer, and now that we have seen that opportunities for working within Your Party to build the party that we need have been significantly diminished, both from what they were when the party was announced and from what we hoped they would be, we have begun that process, to establish ourselves as an independent organisation, working with people in Your Party, other parties, and no party at all, to build a nation-wide socialist organisation for trans liberation.

We are still working with our interim structure, but we have already begun drafting our new constitution, and are working towards holding a refounding conference, where we will officially discuss, vote on, and adopt a Trans Liberation Group Constitution to replace this interim structure.
