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.

Exactly the same comments made in the 60s. To keep the abortion ban then.
It's utter rubbish. Because this is happening. All changing the law dose is mean those become less unsafe when people feel able to contact help.
Arresting a woman who misdiagnosed her conception date. Means absolutely anyone having an abortion legal or not. Is now scared to seek help. Police being encouraged to investigate0 victims of miscarriage. Means any medical issues during pregnancy can now scare the shit out of vonerable women. Encouraging them to avoid help when at risk.
This is just using safety as a code word to excuse saying no. They in no way care about the safety of the patients only there own beliefs.
