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! :'(

Owen Jones wasn't actually actually a supporter of Corbyn and was quite public about his criticisms of the possibility of a Corbyn victory (Corbyn's close supporters regard Owen's actions as part of the campaign against him).
While Starmer didn't personally "overthrow" Corbyn, he was part of the internal Labour Party's milieu that sought to work against the Corbyn leadership during the election. The former British diplomat, Craig Murray asserts that Starmer has always been a state asset/agent and was moved into a position where he would be able to take comtrol of a Labour Party that was moving Left and becoming a mass, popular party.
In the beginning he wasn't, but then we was. And I live in the here and now, not in 2017.
Nobody overthrew Corbyn. Corbyn stepped down after Johnson comprehensively beat him.
Jesus. What a wild conspiracy theory. Starmer is a secret agent put in place to make Labour more centrist. 007 Starmer.
In reality, of course, he was an MP who stood for Labour leader and won the party election.
They had a crushing defeat. They weren't popular.
Of course, in your reality there's no state infiltration of organisations. No women made pregnant by undercover agent-provocateur-cops. No 2000 groups in which state agents rose to leadership posts. No knighted lawyers who could be used to ensure that a mass leftwing party toed the line during a period of economic hardship. No organised anti-semetic smearing of a popular left-wing politician...
No, it's a world of everything being how it appears and fairness, honesty and decency. Honest politicians and democratic votes. Oh, to have such a view of politics.
Jesus Christ. You are deep down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. What's next, 5G controls our brains? Chemtrails? Jewish space lasers?
Ho ho ho. I guess that the mainstream newspapers are also "down the conspiracy rabbit hole" too. Maybe check in with media other than GB News, Talk Radio and Fox.
