General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
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.

[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

The head of the Muslim World League (MWL) has urged Britons to talk less about Gaza and more about domestic issues, saying that the UK government should consider integration a matter of national security.

Muhammad bin Abdul Karim Issa, the former Saudi Arabian justice minister who has headed up the Mecca-based international Islamic NGO since 2016, said in comments to The Times that Israel's war on Gaza has increased division in Britain.

He's just trying to deflect attention from Saudi Arabia's close ties to Israel and the fact that the Saudis have never done anything to help the Palestinians, instead building mosques and staffing them with Wahhabi fanatic imams.
