UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
No just some one who is fed up with this teenage "This person doesnt agree with me/go far enough on this one issue so they are literally the devil" which only serves to benefit the right. Notice how they always unite behind their leader even if they dont agree with them on everything as they understand that if you dont win you dont get to do anything.
(Note this applies equally to the labour right who spent 4 years sabotaging Corbyn)
Benefit what right? See, this is what I hate about discussing politics with your mother fuckers with your head up your own arse. Corbyn, for what it's worth, had policies that attempted to help people and Starmer didn't keep any of them, instead opting for "electable policies" which fall firmly in the sphere of Conservative politics. I shouldn't have to justify my race to talk about the failings Starmer has had to minority communities. While Starmer was happy to speak up against antisemitism, he didn't speak up against Johnson's anti-black rhetoric or the racism that was directed at Diane Abbott. You wouldn't dare say to a Jewish person, what have you done for the Jewish community if they called into question someone's record on antisemitism, so what gives you the right to say that bullshit to me. You're fucked in the head!
