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! :'(

have you got some examples?
I think by their own definition they're very far left, no?
You only have to watch the news to hear Labour councillors being caught glorifying far left tropes about Jewish people and Israel.
Neil Kinnock and Anas Sawar was on the news yesterday berating George Galloway, for example. Even Labour acknowledge want nothing to do with that side of things.
Thankfully these fringe elements are being pushed to the fringe, but they have no place in Labour.... in my opinion.
