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! :'(

Half the tories have some history of Islam phobic comments. Or outright racism of some other form. Sexism or lots of other crap.

Without being sent for any correction at all.

Yet someone who appolagised and attended a course is your concern.

Especially when you consider the huge amount of daily racism she faces day in and day out on social media.

Sorry no I have way more sympathy for her getting a little out of wak about the subject and how it effects different people. Then I do any toffy nosed middle aged white guy who has never faced such thing at all.

PS that is coming from a middle aged white guy. Just to clarify. But you will have to make your own mind up on the toffee.
