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.

This sort of stuff - which indicates organised international political operations by the far-right - will get drowned out by the rabble-rousing "pedo" noise.

This is also exactly why we needed the files released. It's a tsunami of shit they had no hope of fully redacting.

Epstein: If you google the word idiot, Donald Trump comes up.

Epstein: Donal Trump Jr says his dad is a "regifter" - I think he should have said re grifter

Bannon: Brilliant

Bannon was the brains behind the party taking 2016, crafting his fake populist message.

Panama papers?

And who is Bannon planning to install next time around? Just because Epstein is dead does not mean any of this has stopped

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 13 points 1 week ago

Farage, presumably. Though Musk wants Tommy Robinson.

they have been doing this for decades all over the world.

and bannon has been connected to all of these fascist nuts popping up around the globe.
