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.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

As funny as the idea sounds.
A few million people filling in a parliamentary partition along the lines off.
We request parliament return the right to national Banishment laws. Applied via referendum when politicians commit crimes in office. Such as those participated in by Boris Johnson over the COVID pandemic.
The undersigned consider this to be the ultimate expression of the democratic process. And the only way to ensure future MPs recognise the importance of public opinion on their actions.
While unlikely to pass. With a few million votes, it would be forced to be discussed in parliamentary committee. And inform BJ very clearly of the value of an STFU policy.
More so when the parlimentary commitee points out the ECHR bans its members banishing citizens.
If we leave parliment has no limitation to leaving boris without citizenship.
