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.

There are two types of reform voter. The first type of the racist bigots that would just vote for reform whatever (although reform are losing some of them to Rupert Lowe's party) and the second type are the people that are fed up with the current establishment and just want some kind of anti-establishment party they can vote for. And they just put up with the racism.
The more and more videos that come out showing how much of an actual Nazi he is, the less those people can tolerate the racism and the fewer support him. I would be willing to bet that the majority of reforms support are these second group. The out and out bigots have always been an extremely vocal minority.
I really hope you're right. If so the greens stand a pretty good chance
