Most Reform UK are racist sacks of shit, poll finds

Don’t get complacent. Vote every election. Make sure your friends vote. Look at what’s happening in the US.

I’m in and from the US and can confirm it is awful and incredibly taxing on the mental health of the sane.

Easy to say when you have a choice. All the US has are two cheeks on the same ass to choose from. Did you see our "opposition party" join in the standing ovation for attacking Iran? Voting is just a shitty good cop/bad cop sitcom in the US.

Yeah we're in real danger of turning into a monarchy

Racist fascists are racist fascists, poll finds.

In other news: water is wet, and the only good kind of fascist is a dead fascist.

We need to bring back shame, those racist broken condom residues have become too empowered because we let them spew their verbal diarrhoea all over the place. Urgh.

Did anyone think that wasn't the case?

Yeah, a lot of people from non-white backgrounds are voting Reform. They think being born here equates them to being at level with WASPs, and my 18-year old cousin is gleefully telling me how he'd like to send all the migrants back on boats whilst apparently thinking that he will be spared during such a purge.

I'm picking on him because he's young, but he's just voicing the "close the door" narrative that his uncles and grandparents are telling him as they've struggled to get jobs due to competing labour.

They're just not seeing that the "close the door behind me" narrative is actually code for "flush out non-whites"

An attack against one is an attack on all.

Agreed, I've also seen and heard a lot of this attitude, going back decades now.

In addition, I think that Islamophobia is very widespread in the UK, including among ethnic minority groups. Both white and non-white Islamophobes see anti-immigrant polices as partly or primarily a way to persecute Muslims and prevent more of them coming to the UK.

Would be more in their interest to vote RestoreUK in that case

[-] Denjin@feddit.uk 5 points 3 days ago

Personally I'm going to vote for RecycleUK

[-] als@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 2 days ago

I am voting for CompostUK, who say we should bury the country until it decomposes into useable fertiliser

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, 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.

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.
