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.

If I switched on the news tomorrow and the headline is “The USA has bombed…”, any country or continent could be at the end of that sentence and my surprise (or lack of) would be the same.

The USA is being run with no guard rails by a deranged dictator, backed up by white supremacists and corporate robber barons. Any country is fair game including NATO members, in response the UK should switch to a war economy.

The US is also in a civil war. Even if trumps opposition has not recognised it yet. Trump and his supporters are actively involved in a take over by force.
