I'm glad people are speaking up against Starmer turning Labour into the New Conservatives.

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! :'(

she just have wanted to spend more time at home denying the holocaust
In her resignation letter, published by the Sunday Times, external, the Canterbury MP lambasts the prime minister for accepting gifts worth tens of thousands of pounds while scrapping the winter fuel payment and keeping the two-child benefit cap.
Very funny thing for someone who accepted a £10k private donation and didn't vote on the winter fuel payment to say. Shouldn't expect moral consistency from a transphobe.
I don’t think you’ve read this. They are donations directly to a campaign fund. Are you drawing equivalence to accepting clothes for a spouse or a holiday in New York ?
For the winter fuel payment, abstention or having the whip removed, as is nearly always case in British parliamentary politics .
I did read it, I just think it demonstrates the same problem as Stramer's freebies, rich people pushing money around in policies to buy influence.
Sayonara, transphobe
