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! :'(

He is the eternal bogeyman, perfect to frighten centre right labour members back in line.
He's not exactly the devil and not exactly the perfect angelic vision that each side makes him out to be.
I like his national, social policies. I don't like his foreign policy.
Despite it affecting far less of the country, his foreign policy is what got him lambasted in the media.
As an American, I always watched Corbyn from afar thinking of him as your version of Bernie Sanders. Sanders has disappointed of late as well with his refusal to call for a ceasefire and his less than nuanced blind support of Israel's bombardment of civilians. So... I guess Corbyn's unwillingness to call Hamas a terrorist org feels very similar.
