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.

Wow. This is the first time a politician hasn't given a straight answer.
More meaningless twaddle from a site for idiots.
It's a pretty trashy tabloidy site for sure. Not sure I agree with not reporting on politicians ignoring issues, or flip flopping on previous pledges. The press shouldn't really succumb to apathy at any point.
If they were held accountable for it more often, maybe they would stop?
Lol. Yes, of course.
