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.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
He was at the tory party conference dancing with Priti Patel. He withdrew brexit party candidates in tory seats. Rishi Sunak has said he'd be welcomed into the party. Jaco Smogg mentioned a red carpet. He's popular with the base.
But I doubt he'd ever manage to become an elected MP. Suspect kingmaking and meddling is more his style. Far less work and you don't actually have to get your hands dirty.
Not sure we are really disagreeing.
My point was more. If you are claiming to one day lead a party. You have not made the minimal effort to join. You really don't have any GAS about that party. Just your own reputation.
