United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
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.

Seems like the full decant option it is then?
I've read that one of the reasons why repair jobs take so long is because some Lords refuse to have sessions is there's any visible building work going on in the chamber. So contractors need to stop, put things back and stop while there's a session going on and then continue when it's finished. And other staff complain if there's any slight bit of noise going on.
If they can decant everyone out then this should surely help with that as contractors can work uninterrupted.
I thought the plan from a few years ago to put them all up in York seemed sensible
I like the idea of moving things up north, but I'm not sure if it's really practical given that Whitehall is in London and other key departments.
If they managed during the pandemic I think they can handle it now. I would like some departments to be moved out of London but I get that London is a talent draw so some staff would not like to move.
