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! :'(

The BBC have consistently been on the wrong side when it comes to Palestine.

The BBC has been a regime mouthpiece since before the Brexit referendum.

More specifically, they have been a Tory mouthpiece, and still are. Labour should take steps to restore its independence.

With all Labour's efforts to get rid of "anti-semites" from the party, I wouldn't hold your breath for any real change.

Pro-Palestine viewpoints are political poison. Look at Corbyn.

Wasn't the anti-semitism thing a bit of an excuse/scapegoat as they were so scared of actual socialist policy?

Maybe, but that shot of Corbyn holding a wreath at that Hamas guys funeral pretty much defined the Labour side of that election.

Not that any other leader would have won against Boris anyway, it was all about Brexit and bluster.
