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.

Nothing will save him from the revelations of the Epstein pedo files.

Yet he doesn't seem to be affected by the memes online about the Epstein Files. He is still acting like a dictator and getting praised for it.

Not quite sure what the US needs to do to get out of his grip but I suspect they've lost already. They're just here for the ride.

I think these things take years and years. All of the bad stuff we're seeing online is happening in small pockets of a massive country and most people don't care until it's on their doorstep. When we learn about wars or coups or I surections etc it's usually decades of struggles condensed.
