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! :'(

Oh Liz is a pro-trump speaker now? Odd but not surprising I suppose.

Oh yep, don't forget her bullshit about a woke UK deep state she said on her way out. Give it another 3 years and she'll have dropped to the level of headline guest at conspiracy conventions.

And the UK tax payer is forking out for her retirement with ex-PM pension she can now draw from! New rule, you've got to at least make it 1 year as PM before you qualify for the Β£100k a year pension.

Imagine what that cabbage is on! A wedge I bet.

Then there's her resignation honours list...

Or at least outlast a lettuce.

She’ll suckle at whatever titty is lactating. What’s the alternative, a real job?!

Plenty of corps will pay her high 6 figures to sit on their board of directors to use her government contacts to their advantage.

[–] jabjoe 6 points 3 months ago

I think most of her contacts don't have much power now. Her party is a rump now and her wing of it disgraced. Also, she is toxic to PR.

[–] futatorius@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

By "contacts," I think what's generally meant is "those who are known to be on the take."

There's money in it if you have no principles. So there she is.
