The party has been led since 2011 by Fabian Picardo.

“Men conceive themselves as morally superior to those with whom they differ in opinion. A Socialist who thinks that the opinions of Mr. Gladstone on Socialism are unsound and his own sound, is within his rights; but a Socialist who thinks that his opinions are virtuous and Mr. Gladstone’s vicious, violates the first rule of morals and manners in a Democratic country; namely, that you must not treat your political opponent as a moral delinquent.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“He’ll fear not what men say,
He’ll labour night and day
To be a Pilgrim.”
—John Bunyan (1628–1688)
“Such is the human race. Often it does seem such a pity that Noah and his party did not miss the boat.”
