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! :'(

I mean, what do you expect him to say?
He can agree with the referendum and say we won’t join whilst he’s leader. But to say lifetime is a long fucking time
It's almost as if he needs to say these things to get elected.
I don't credit that one bit. Going back is an increasingly popular view, and then there's the whole Russian interference angle; it was a bad idea with a fumbled execution. Why commit, because it's gone so well for us?
Because it'd be political suicide to go back on it.
He just needs to keep his yap shut for one more day and he can start fixing things. And our absence in the EU is something that needs to be fixed.
and he can start fixing things
Lol, he has given absolutely no indication in his political career of any intention to fix anything (that matters to you and me, rather than capitalists and the rest of the establishment he represents, that is).
You want him to be quiet, but he keeps telling you over and over and over and over again who he really is, why won't you listen????
Probably realistic unfortunately ☹️
Try harder Starmer. We’re only voting you in because a lot of the other parties are full of bastards, do something worthwhile!
I really strongly disagree with this sentiment. I think this man will be a very successful progressive prime minister who really leads the country back towards the left and a compassionate state.
And I really, really hope you’re right.
in my lifetime.
What a fucking arsehole. I'm 53, so the UK joined with a 74% yes vote. And left again on a fucking close vote. Within my lifetime.
Based on that history, what the fuck right does anyone have to predict that far in the future. It is just arrogance. And has 0 relation to democracy.
