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.

"I didn't think the Leopards would eat my face".

Honestly this guy is an absolute moron. If he honestly thinks reform voters think he's "one of the good ones" and therefore exempt from their racism he is deluding himself.

"If a foreign national lives in social housing at taxpayer expense, they automatically fail our economic test and will be deported."

Yusuf is actually arguing that Jenrick's position is too soft.. he wants poor migrants out as he understands that while reform supporters are racist and hate global majority groups they actually hate poor people more

plus the top brass only cares about money so he'll get called names by reform voters but still get the red carpet rolled out by his close allies so he does not care - unfortunately rich fucks understand class solidarity better than we do most times

Reform voters don't care about consistent, coherent policies. That would require rationality.
