Good for him. The media have wasted no time smeering Galloway and dismissing the importance of the result.
United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, 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.
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.
I mean, he’s eminently smeerable
He comes across as one of those people whose heart is mostly in the right place but is utterly insufferable!
I don't get his politics. "Conservative Socialism" makes no sense.
He royally pissed off Reform which in my book is the main thing. After all it's a by-election which probably is less than a year away from a general election. It literally couldn't matter less.
Now they are pulling a Donald Trump and claiming the election was rigged.
Surely it should be for Rochdale?
I’m sure people in Gaza will be absolutely thrilled 🙄
