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! :'(

JK Rowling Is just a troll now.

If I had her money, no one would ever see me again besides the hookers I bring into my private island and maybe my coke dealer.

I’ll just have the hookers grab the pizza.

That reminds me that I should drink some of my piss.

A great example of someone who seemingly logged into Twitter one day and said, It'd be neat if I let this website drive me completely insane.

Graham Linehan as well. Completely off the deep end.

I suppose the one advantage of her going completely loopy is that my wife won't make me sit through any more terrible Fantastic Beasts movies. They were complete shit.

Rowling looks like the sort of person who votes for Farage.

Used to be a Labour super donor I think 🤔.

Yet another example how it's time for Labour to move on. The past is past.

I mean what else are you meant to say? "We'll change our policy based on the whims of one millionaire"

labour: for the rich few not the many.
