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! :'(

No, those stats are from last month and are the Tory parties own research into ordinary (not just MPs) members.
So this table is from a survey done by the Conservative home blog. They survey 'selected activists' about whether they approve of certain members. I can't find any details on who these 'selected activists' are but as Conservative Home is quite a right wing blog I doubt it's a balanced take. They also won't have access to the list of Tory party members so won't be picked from there.
Basically what we can judge from this is she's popular with the far right, which we already knew. She's not popular party wide.
