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.

Party of bigots lie and steal? I'm shocked!

Yeah, it's increasingly like the US divide, where it's not so much left/right as pro-social/anti-social.

"we financially exploit everyone" party vs "we financially exploit everyone but we particularly hate women, minorities, queer people, and all political oppositions" party.

"It's OK if they're incompetent liars as long as they hate the right people."

Fascist the world (and history) over are the same.
