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! :'(

it looks like playing to the Left, who do not share most people's admiration of her

The woman that people celebrated the death of? Who ruined basically half of the UK? Most people admire her? This guy is in a fucking echo chamber.

Baroness Arlene Foster .... "the most significant PM after Churchill".

  1. Have you heard of Clement Atllee, who gave the UK the fucking NHS?

  2. Arlene Foster, WHO STOLE 500 MILLION POUNDS can shut the fuck up

I would take it down just on the off-chance that her ghost might use it as a portal to return from the nether realm, Ghostbusters 2 style.

I mean it probably won't happen but why take the risk

He's lending it to Tony Blair for wank fodder.

Hope they used a crate because Maggie's in a box.

This would look great sticking out of a skip on Downing Street with the rest of Boris’s crap.

Well yes after 14 years of a criminal tory government. Who when no longer able to win even under first past the post. Decided to divid the nation by attacking the most vonrable disabled, poor and migrants. And blaming them for the criminal harm there party did.

Yes the rest of the nation may be fucking petty to those tory mps have dominatrix sex dreams about.
