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.

What she retweeted was a blatantly open Nazi calling Jews paedophiles, and she did so with no criticism whatsoever
The video has a guy quoting literally quoting the Talmud. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talmud
Do you give this same leeway to racists that do the same thing to Muslims over Muhammad and Aisha? Even when those racists are calling themselves "Der Wulf" and have a crusader as a profile picture?
If they are victims of ISIS and the UK government is supporting ISIS murdering them the last thing that would come to my mind is trying to nitpick what they repost.
Jesus fucking christ "don't uncritically promote incredibly obvious Holocaust-denying Nazis to your audience for their analysis of the Talmud" is neither a nitpick nor a bar we should be failing to clear here. She does not need DerWulf's vicious racism in order to be anti-Zionist.
I certainly do not agree with her retweet but I also do not think that is worth anything more than the deletion of the Tweet by Twitter. Not a house raid.
