UK Politics
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.

The problem is Greens may not be able to make inroards in working areas. They're largely popular in well off areas and it's where they used to target. It could be that both parties target their bread and butter and don't directly run against each other and work together.
How true this is will become more concrete in the local elections next year. We may need both to oppose fascism. Even if YP is deeply flawed and Greens have less baggage.
Depends whether you care more about socialist outcomes or validating that your "intuition was right".
