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 most odious thing about this is that they want to weaken the ECHR so that they can abuse immigrants more, in order to appease Reform voters, who will never vote Labour anyway.

Starmer need to go. The sooner, the better.

But they rooted out anyone who disagreed. They'll struggle. Their new deputy criticised them for considering dropping austerity. When the critics are more Tory than the Red Tory leadership, it's done.

Green's are our best chance right now, though next GE, tactical will be the way.
