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.

I wonder how many levels of remove are needed before the police will actually leave you alone.

"I support people who support people who support the Palestine Action hunger strikers' mums"

"I explicitly oppose all actions of Palestine Action, but support every one of their members on a purely personal level"

"I support Palestine Action if the police officer who arrests me is a wanker, otherwise I don't"

"Sometimes I support Palestine Action, but only when there are no people under the age of 80 within 50 metres of me"
