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.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Imagine Nigel Farage calling absolutely anything or anyone else "disgraceful". The guy belongs head-first in a concrete mixer. Piece of shit.
People who actually like Farage: what's it like being a huge cunt?
Badenoch is an idiot (shocking I know) because programming it to tick up automatically is the most naive way or faking numbers. It's very easily disproved.
What's much more likely is that they are real numbers but they're from bot accounts. We only have reforms word that everyone was charged £25, showing Sky News the API calls doesn't really prove anything.

Or they are cover for foreign bad faith actors to pump cash into Reform to influence UK politics. I'd be interested to see if they do due diligence on sign-up or if the "members" are just created by bots scraping public information (or just making shit up).
I hope that it goes ahead and the fascists will need to show the list of members as a part of court disclosure. I can't wait to see it.
Which fascists? Badenoch's lot or Farage's?
Good point. I meant Farage's though.
Badenoch doesn't really have any
Apart from most of the Tories?
Out of court settlement before that happens. But if not.... 🍿. I'm all here for it 😆.
only likely if she lied.
If her claims of the party having seen the code are true. She has testimony to support her at least. Likely saved code.
So if an out of court settlement is agreed. May as well say fareage was in the right. As her claim was no more then a guess.
If not. Then honestly kemi has grounds to take him to court if he drops the case. As the accusation is the exact crime he is accusing her off.
Unfortunately the claims made were specific. That the reform web site automatically increases numbers.
Weather evidence can be provided by either side to support or falsify that statement will be the direction the case goes.
Also because party membership is personal information. A list of that data would not be public. Only the number of payments made.
Weather evidence can be provided by either side...
I don't think whether it is raining or not will matter much.
Not necessarily.
Tories may demand the disclosure in order to prove that Farage's party don't have as many members as their website says it has. It is up to the judge to decide if such request is granted.
This is what we've got to look forward to for the next few years isn't it? Nigel Farage having a fucking perpetual tantrum until he gets all his own way about everything, standards be damned. He'll probably tantrum his way right into being PM
I wonder how many of those members will remain members once they realise they have just paid for a fanclub membership and have no power to influence anything other than their bank account.
It’s the meltdown when they fail I’m not looking forward to.
Do it. Mutually Assured Destruction.
Tories and Reform bashing each other is pure viagra
said he is “not going to take it lying down”.
No, he's usually on his hands and knees.
Reform showed sky news some letter and numbers on a screen
That was probably just a size of Farage's penis.
