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! :'(

So, she's sorry because she 'acted on misguided information.' If the information had been correct does that mean she wouldn't have been sorry?

[–] Guntrigger@sopuli.xyz 28 points 3 months ago (4 children)

I don't think she is sorry at all.

"She’s a good person and she’s not racist" Says her husband.

It's pretty racist to call for burning alive a bunch of innocent people because they aren't white. Like Nazi-level genocidal racism.

[–] baggins@beehaw.org 13 points 3 months ago

Exactly. Sorry because she got called out on it.

She'll quite happily take money off of the parents of the kids she looks after. Quite happy to be served by non white people, quite happy to have her food prepared, to be treated in hospital, make her clothes, make music she listens to, pretty much everything, the hypocritical cow.

It's always possible she's a homicidal maniac who wants to see lots of people die no matter what the colour of their skin is.

We live in hope.

She absolutely is a racist, clearly and demonstrably so by her own actions and opinions, and I think the media should be willing to say that

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago

I can see why the husband of a loathsome racist might think that.
