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.

FTA: "She also reposted a comment describing UKLFI as 'a threat to democracy and our way of life' and calling for the group to be proscribed."

I like her.

UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI).

Why am I not surprised.

I suppose Palestinians in the UK should also have the right to have the star of David removed from all public spaces due to its use on Israel's flag and the fact they're being genocided by Israel, if October 7th can now perpetually be used to censor everything related to Palestine and Palestinian culture.

Lawyers for Israel need to be stricken off and kicked out of the country the fucking lawfare abusing trolls.

We need more Laïcité over here. That's something the French get less wrong than we do.

Better tell the guys down at airsoft not to wear them as well
