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! :'(

Are the gangs affiliated with rich people getting access or just peasants trafficng peasants children for other peasants to abuse?
Or the angle here it got buried not to piss off Muslims? Why would conservatives care to "protect" the Muslims then?
The latter as I remember it. The allegations were that police were turning a blind eye to crimes under UK law for fear of "targeting" certain communities.
Tories tend to always support the police.
Sorry this is late.
It appears to be peasants trafficking for peasants, as nothings come out. But bad stuff rarely comes out for the elites does it?
That angle is the one pushed here. I think that the conservatives wanted divide, and maybe a coverup, as we all know white people can be paedos, and there’s plenty of paedos or abusers amongst Tommy Robinsons fan boys.
