Lobbying being allowed to exist is in 2026 is ridiculous. It is just a proof that whole of politics, to first order, is designed to serve the interest of billionaires. It should instead be considered a serious political crime.
For those wondering how cheaply this one sold himself: A scant five thousand quid.
I could just about muster up five large for my own tame MP. I just don't know if I could afford the pet insurance.
I only skimmed the article but they didn't name the Labour MPs?
British politicians are suprisingly cheap.
Lol what the fuck
United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, 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.
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.
