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! :'(

MODERATORS
I like to listen to it every week but the Tories just keep on spinning every fact to make it look like they've done better than ever before.
Needs a decent fact checking service. The whole thing is over the top though and the rules in the house is antiquated.
Especially if the fact checking was in real time, preferably with some variation on the QI klaxon.
As soon as the feckless bastard says something inaccurate a big screen behind him would let him, and everyone watching, know.
@Cliffjumper @UKFilmNerd Something like a cricket ‘review’ system could be useful (you can refer something you think is wrong, but if *you’re* then adjudged to be wrong, you lose one of three reviews)
