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.

He should have united with the lib dems to advocate a second ref. But sat back and didn't. If he cannot beat Boris at an election then why would he be a decent PM?
Boris had a party breaking election campaign spending laws employing Cambridge Analytica to do last minute targeted Facebook ads.
Corbyn literally had no stance on Brexit.
So having no stance on Brexit is worse than literal crimes?
It is when you lose an election and allow the would-be criminals to muck up the country
Are you importing our shitty American propaganda now? 'She lost to someone actively evil, so she must be worse.'
Arsonists get into power and you blame the fires on the firefighters.
He obviously was worse if he lost. That's how elections work.
Then Brexit was the right answer. Yeah? More votes equals better choice.
No worse option has ever won an election. Apparently.
