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.
Has anybody failed upwards more than Nigel fucking Farage? What does he actually do other than be utterly fucking detestable?
He helps cover up what other, richer people are doing.
But I don't even get that - I look at him and instinctively think "liar", how does anyone else not?
That bald alt right American guy who wears the beanie and has nothing but shit takes. I think he's failed upwards more.
Not that he has much to offer anyone, except possibly a tempting target, but what on Earth is he going to offer the Aussies? He barely knows anything about the UK.
I think you nailed it, a tempting target for spare milkshakes.
Nah, you cunts can fuckin keep him ay.
I thought you guys were used to snakes?
Yeah, doesn't mean we want anymore tho. Stop sending your criminals to us, I'm pretty sure we're not a prison anymore.
You mean you live there by choice?
Of course, it's fuckin awesome, yeah I might get bitten by a spider from the hell dimension or bitten by a snake while having a piss in my own back toilet and yeah the magpies will attempt to remove both your eyes and scalp you by dive bombing you at mach 3, but it's a great place to get drunk at all the time.
Yeah but it's Murdoch that hired him, so I feel like this is your fault.
Sky News Australia is like Fox News in US: they all are fake news outlets.
They aren't fake. They are the fascist corporacratic-state propaganda machine.
Their only purpose is to conduct psychological warfare on a global scale, until they con the working class into supporting dictatorship. Their goal is the complete destruction of democracy.
Still exporting criminals to Australia in 2025
Suddenly I'm feeling anti-immigration
