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.

Full text:

Over the last 24 hours, a number of false and defamatory statements have been published about me concerning the launch of Your Party’s membership portal.

The portal was properly launched in accordance with the party’s roadmap.

At no point was members’ data misused or put at risk.

All funds received from members were ringfenced and protected in the appropriate manner.

These baseless attacks on my character are politically-motivated and I intend to hold to account those responsible for making them.

To that end, I have this evening instructed specialist defamation lawyers.

To avoid prejudicing or complicating any future legal process, I will not be making any further comment about this matter at this time.

Lol, lmao. The speed that's this has imploded is impressive, even for the left. It's almost funny enough to make you forget that we're going to have a Reform government in 4 years. Almost.

Just join the Green party.

The problem with the green party is they don't have a mature attitude to environmentalism it's at the level of naive teenager lecturing an electrical engineer.
