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.

Based. Shame it's reform.
Yeah, but if there's one thing Nige knows… it's which way the wind is blowing.
Let's hope Jezza comes out against this ridiculous law.
Nigel looks where the public opinion is heading, runs to the front and shouts ‘FOLLOW ME!’
Worked for Boris.
Yeah! But Boris wasn’t an absolute cu… you’re right, it worked for Boris.

3 minute shot of Clarkson angling a camera at his visibly fed-up face
What's Jeremy Clarkson got to do with this?
We could just go for a classic kier/tory u-turn
What's he going to do, lose another election?
Who hurt you?
Jeremy Corbyn by failing to stop Brexit by being a fencesitter in the 2019 election
He couldn't. Referendum already happened, he wasn't in power. He tried to sort it in Parliament first, but Greens, SNP and Liberals backed the snap election. Labour lost in the red wall, by bleeding Brexit votes to the Tories. Moving closer to remain would have gave bigger majorities in remain seats and a bigger hammering in more marginals.
In conclusion, your assertion has no basis in reality.
You hate him because he couldn't do something impossible.
Now that’s based.
