I wish that was true. I live in the South Wales valleys, and a significant number of people here think that he’s a man of the people who’s standing up for them and their rights. Tommy Robinson too :(

All he has to do is put on wellies every now and then and attend the odd farmers protest and everyone thinks he’s some kind of saint.

All this despite the fact that he never turns up to parliament and has still not converted reform into an actual political party despite saying he would do so “in the next few weeks” over a year ago. I despair of the human race.

Don’t forget that when he ‘represented’ us in the EU parliament, he barely turned up to work, and let the UK fishing rights get taken away, then protested with the fishermen!

Stephen Yaxley-Lennon or whatever posh name that guy has. Wasn’t he ordering riots on a pool deck in Cyprus or something?

How dare you dox poor old tiny Tommeh like that! He was working hard from his lilo before the loony left outed him!

For anyone reading this who’s out of the loop, Tommy Robinson, aka Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, provoked and organised riots in the UK, but while the perpetrators were being arrested, he took his family away on a foreign holiday ‘for their safety’.

UK Politics

Create post

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! :'(
