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! :'(

Starmer wants that sweet sweet Brexit Red Wall vote so he's not going to offer anything meaningful by way of rejoin.

Me: Time to vote for a party that wants to rejoin.

Militant Leftists: A vote for anyone other than Labour is a vote for the Tories.

The BBC has been a good source of news and has fell into the unbiased category in the past. This really is not the case today. That book was written before 2016. The situation is a whole lot worse now because of the aggressive political influence
