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.

Pretty hard to do with such a predominant right wing bias in the media. This was posted as something good that the Tories are responsible for. All facts regarding how weak the legislation or that the stronger legislation was voted was kindly omitted from any publications except the left wing media. This was under Johnson's watch, but the group of people calling the shots has not changed.
I suppose Starmer doesn't have a platform of his own? He doesn't have a voice, a website, an impeccable PR team that runs Twitter and Facebook, six open questions every week on PMQs, a whole shadow front bench that do media rounds every day, and hasn't been having secret meetings with Rupert Murdoch.
Yeah you're right, there's absolutely nothing Labour could possibly do 😉.
Starmer is not pushing himself as NEWS though. The channel is literally called GB news. That infers it is giving factual evidence when clearly it is nothing more than a culture wars platform designed to push their own agenda.
Sorry who is talking about GB news? There are other news channels available.
Ask yourself: do you really think Starmer and Labour are doing enough? Or is it always a right wing conspiracy that stands in the way?
I am a bit above your gaslighting troll. I am also not an ardent Labour supporter. There is no right wing conspiracy, there is clear evidence the right wing have bought out the media to push an agenda. The conspiracy is people believe it is divide and conquer. The reality is that it is just a heist.
Mate, I don't want to get into a pointless argument with you, but you rather randomly brought up GB News for what reason I have no idea 🤣. And I'm sorry, but the way you talk sounds conspiracy 101.
The guardian and independent and financial times are clear bastions of the right wing 🙄.
😂😂 who talks like this?
Anyway, I bid you good afternoon. Enjoy the sunshine wherever you are.
