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! :'(

Can we build a wall around rees-mogg? such a hateful cunt.

Well his seat is coastal. So if he wins again. Its possible. Atm its close polling wise but labour is predicted to win.

If they vote the twonk in again. A forced independence movement may be the best solution.

I think this a fantastic idea. Somebody get him a trowel and mortar quick before he changes his mind.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 16 points 4 months ago

I'm happy to help fill his hod with bricks so he can get that first course down.

[–] baggins@beehaw.org 4 points 4 months ago

Let's start a Go Fund Me to get him some (bricklaying) tools.

Don't they got them big cliffs already?

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 17 points 4 months ago

I can't wait for these dumb cunts to be wiped off the face of the political landscape.

Sounds like a fun engineering project. Imports and exports have become too easy since brexit as well.

[–] apis@beehaw.org 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Nothing could be more delicious to Mogg's ears than the destruction of the UK economy. All the better for a disaster capitalist to feed upon, and all the cheaper the labour & deregulated the conditions to serve up to other greedy scumbags.

What a penis.

I'm an american and my first exposure to him was on Have I Got News For You. I had to look him up after because I thought he was a comedian whose shtick was over the top conservative. Like a british Colbert.

[–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago

And in a way I think he is. The guy probably spent way too much time alone as a child reading Victorian novels.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

He's also really stupid but gets away with it because he kind of sounds intelligent.

At one point he was going around putting little notes on people's desks telling them to get back to work and stop working from home. How are they going to read that Mogg, telepathy?

I'm sure some of it he plays up, but he really does live in his own little bubble without much exposure to the real world.

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

And, because he is rich, he is seen as "excentric", not "crazy".

[–] Thordros@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Isn't this the dipshit in a top hat who needed his mommy to campaign with him?

[–] OhNoMoreLemmy@lemmy.ml 10 points 4 months ago

His nanny.

Mommy was too busy so they had to pay someone to spend time with him.

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 9 points 4 months ago

Can someone put this wannabe corpse in a coffin already?

[–] SteefLem@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

The brainfarts of these ppl are really something

What if Panama-Canal, but reverse?
