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! :'(

My congratulations go to the reform party and Nigel Farage, probable prime minister like 10 years from now.
No he won't. They've got four seats, one of which doesn't really count because his support is just a holdover from him being a conservative, that's not exactly the makings of a political dynasty.
Also can Nigel Farage even be arsed,
The chance of this happening is remarkably close to zero.
I remember thinking the same about Johnson once.
I think the main difference is that Johnson has always had aspirations of being bigger and greater. He will destroy anything if it means the chance to grab more power.
Farage is more like Sinn Fein, just a complete blocker to any progress for anyone else.
Johnson was in one of the main two parties and a popular figure (for some reason).
Farage is neither of these.
Have you forgotten that we're in the Stupidest Timeline? You've forgotten haven't you?
Maybe half that time.
