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.

MODERATORS
People won't care, normal logic doesn't apply to these type of douches.
Normal people would care, but they've already made up their minds about Farage.
This is the same thing as Trump, endless articles trying to convince people of something they either already believe, or who are dug in such that it entrenches them.
I suppose these articles need to be written for documentation, like this is the actual "first draft of history" that subscribers and advertisers pay for, but they're not going to change anything politically (I think).
Maybe this is aimed at wobbly Tories?
"One rule for thee another for me" being just the natural way of things is a widespread perspective in Britain, both amongst the "riff-raff" and amongst those they see as their "betters".
