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.

Labour should just jettison him. He served his purpose, driving Corbyn out (which shouldn't have been done, but it's done). He's obviously worthless as a leader. Time to put someone less rigid and more human-seeming in.

To be fair, he is stuck between a rock and a hard place at the minute. By rock I mean centre-right and hard place I mean far-right.

And by stuck I mean he loves it.
