UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
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.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Dude really is your Hillary, isn't he? Assholes decided he's the devil and ruin him just by endlessly scoffing at the very idea of him.
Our Hillary? As in Clinton? That's not how I'd put it. JCs a chap who has stood up for the oppressed against oppressors regardless of who they were. He was an actual reformer, and wanted to actually help people, his party threw 2 elections for the sake of the status quo and corporate interests, and did nothing about the smear campaigns against him. The British public mostly liked him though and he brought more people to his party than basically ever, people used to sing his name.
Hillary? I mean, she was a democrat but in no way a reformer, things would have just been status quo under her like they are under Biden.
She wanted universal healthcare since the 1990s.
Still, I'd much more readily draw a comparison between Corbyn and Bernie Sanders over Hillary any day of the week, the press tried the anti-semitism with sanders too briefly, but it didn't stick because the man is Jewish himself.
