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! :'(

The woman who threw a milkshake over Nigel Farage is a Labour-supporting adult model, it can be revealed.

Victoria Thomas-Bowen, 25, previously shared a picture on Facebook with the caption: “Vote Labour for the many not the few”.

And the mother-of-one also regularly publishes raunchy pictures on adult sites and her social media sites.

She said of the incident: "He doesn't stand for me.

"He doesn't represent anything I believe in, or any of the people around here. He doesn't represent us, he's not from here."

...

The young blonde woman hurled a cup of banana milkshake at the new Reform UK leader as he left the Moon and Starfish pub in Clacton, Essex.

...

Thomas-Bowen, from Clacton, Essex, was arrested on suspicion of assault and taken into custody.

It's like she is all the Express' horrors made flesh - a single mother, who posts raunchy snaps online and quotes Corbyn.

My major concern comes via the Mirror:

The 25-year-old mum-of-one describes herself as a 'video creator' on her Instagram profile and also posts links to an Onlyfans page.

Have we escaped Reddit only to encounter Onlyfans spam in the general election?

Very funny sketch of Keir Starmer's only fans in the latest episode of Dead Ringers

"Very funny" and "Dead Ringers" do not belong in the same sentence. They are very good at the impressions I agree but they're not good jokes.

All that jokes are on the level of, Oh what would Truss say oh I know "I knoooooow", yeah comedic genius

They're hardly good at impressions, either. Everyone from north of Essex has the same voice, and they have to announce who everyone is when they start talking as if it's The Archers.
