    Force them to register as foreign agents, and ban foreign agents from any role in political parties. And force parties to report, in detail, any contact they’ve had with them.

    This has been a long time coming.

    I’m glad they managed to get compensation for the Bios update that fried Liz Trusses brain about a decade ago and made her give all those nonsensical responses.

    Terrible proof of concept.

      Terrible proof of concept.

      It did demonstrate that severe brain damage is indistinguishable from MAGA politics.

        It was doing exactly what an AI bot is supposed to do, regurgitate someone elses words; trouble is, it couldn’t string them into a coherent sentence that functioned in a way to convey a message.

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.
