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! :'(

More than 60% of Brits want to re-join the EU with nearly the same number saying Britain was wrong to leave in the first place, a new poll shows.

Hey hey hey, calm down. Not everyone asked for it. We have to deal with it too. I never wanted to leave so seeing so.ethi g like this makes me kinda happy and if we can get back in that be great so I can go back to some sort of normalcy. What's the deal with the aggressive stance of what has happened must stay that way?

You have to understand that people like OP and Brexitiers are essentially one in the same. Like rabid football fans whose team must crush your team at all costs. They're kids in their mentality and kids they will stay. To the detriment of everyone else. What seems to work with them is who can spout the most vitriolic nonsense. Just look at what her original post as an example.

Fuck these people.

I have just browsed their profile and its a torrent of oversimplified theories and an absolute Unquenched hatred for the "left" with shit like "Free Mental health care is a leftists idea" well yeah, when the right treat mental health, they just shoot them for being "Untermensch" I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume this person has never had to deal with being poor or having a family member stricken with a disability or somone close that killed themselves.

Their outlook seems pretty obtuse. If you look closer at it you will notice the classic "I was just joking" line come up when they are confronted. Pathetic human that, just by existing causes human society to slip back into destitution, not on purpose but, by their sheer stupidity.
