It's time to see if the polls are right.

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! :'(
Minecraft.
Reform have an online army that swarms comment threads. Not sure how many of them are based in Russia.
Oh yeah I worked that out thanks to Google. But I don't get the connection to the election, or why so many people were spamming it.
Trolls I suppose.
An unsatisfying answer, even if it is likely correct.
Maybe because of the fake Farage playing minecraft videos?
Honestly not very sure what else it would be.
