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.

Jeremy Corbyn is ready to get a hat trick and lose an election for the third time!

I'd imagine mainstream papers will look to smear Corbyn again should the party pose a big enough threat. Threaten the establishment with proportional taxation and every outlet in the country will be told to smear you.

Only if members select him. He is expected to run but has not actually confirmed it. Zarah Sultana has clearly indicated in an interview. That she intends to run. And would like the members to select her and JC as joint leaders. But it is entirely up to the membership.

Personally my choice ATM would be ZS as leader and JC as deputy.
