    Huh, I thought I followed UK politics pretty closely for a foreigner but I had no idea he had a celebrity background.

      He always did the comedy news panels like Have I Got News For You. Built his profile in the media. Not exactly a celebrity, but one of the most known in terms of TV profile.

      @glimse @G4Z

      Depends on your definition of ‘celebrity’, I guess.

          @G4Z I’m sure he’s been on the receiving end of many jobs. Ahem. Yuck.

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! :'(
