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! :'(

They showed his tweets further down in the article. The bit about: "If Israel wanted to kill them they could do" was especially disgusting.

Ah oops, I meant to say "in the headline". I agree, his tweets were disgusting and I think they should've been highlighted more from the get-go. I just dislike that the headline as it is makes it seem as if the SNP possibly overreacted or reacted in a pro-Israel way. Feels like it's misleading by omission.

Ahh gotcha. Yeah I was actually thinking the same. I thought how bad could it be? Oh. Bad. Shit.
