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! :'(

Musk, getting involved in British politics? The same Musk that kicked off about Brits getting involved in American politics?
Yes. There's a word for that. I think it's cunt.
He only didn't like it because it was against him and his mates.
Elon Musk wants to donate £78,000,000 Nigel Farage https://metro.co.uk/2024/12/01/elon-musk-preparing-donate-78-000-000-help-support-nigel-farage-22100415/
Please I'm from the US and I urge people in the UK to not make the same mistake we've made in the US. We've made a grave error that could potentially cause the global economy to go into a recession, give more power to Putin and other dictators such as Orban and will cause many domestic issues. These domestic issues won't just stay inside of the US, they can have a negative impact on you too because ideas spread both good and bad. By bad ideas I'm thinking rise of racist and sexist ideology and anti-vax misinformation.
Since the election I have felt terrified everyday. This could be you.
Do not let Elon Musk interfere in your politics.
