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.

How many PM did go in the last year ? Not a UK citizen so I try to make sense of this and it don’t look good.
Also what’s your left leaning parties ? Tories are conservative? Labour, right
Labour are traditionally the party of the workers, but they've moved right to a point where some unions are considering if they should move their support to other parties.
Left to right it tends to be:
Edit: Yes, Tories is the the nickname for the Conservatives.
None. Keir has been PM since '24.
Historically Tories occupied the centre right and Labour centre Left. Of course over the years they both waxed and waned with the extremes of the two but that's roughly accurate.
These days there's harder left (Greens) and harder right (Reform) that also have non negligible impact on UK politics. You also have Lib Dems and the SNP that do things 😂.
