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.

Yeah sure, the union busting, nature destroying, Starmer supporting, tax dodger is popular with the left...
Was gunna say, is "the left" just anything that could be considered left of (or even including) Starmer now, even if only a little bit? It's painful where most people's overton window is in the UK. Very clearly overt capitalists being called "left" all the time because they're part of the historically left wing party that obviously hasn't been left wing since the 90s?
