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! :'(

Just musing but.
Wonder how many folks turning up in downing street screaming otherwise. Is required to correct his opinion.
Unfortunately protest just seems to be ignored in the 2020s> heck most of the 2000s to be honest.
As a modern society. We really could do with some way of prooving obviose lies about what we all want. Seems I have heard to many politicians over the decades lie about national will.
Really cannot think of any system other then. Er you know a fucking Genral election after PMs take power without one.
How dare you. The national will is for huge amounts of money to be wasted on not building a train line, then scrapping it, but it's okay because potholes.
100,000 – 150,000.
That's the number any protest has to reach to be considered newsworthy.
Sounds about right. But news worthy never seems to change the mind of MPs. I seriously think that might take 50%+ of he adult population squeezing into downing street. Likely need to fill the M25.
