For what it’s worth, news that other nations also have sleazy rich assholes calling their important shots is a true comfort to Americans. If y’all could get Sunak to submit to an ass-thrusting by a pornstar with a strap-on and to mock some handicapped folks we’d really show you a smile.

These people are sociopaths.

All Labour needs to do is state that these licenses will be revoked if Labour come to power. If they do that they remove all value from them.

They also go directly up against big oil interests. I'm not sure Labour have the courage, or the will while they're chasing votes.

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! :'(
