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! :'(

This whole plan doesn't mention HS2 or Brexit. (nor housing or the environment for that matter)
'Cutting regulations will unlock ยฃ50bn a year in investment, Labour said.' - This is either bullshit or code for fucking over workers.
When it comes to covid fraud, I'm less interested in recovering the cash, and more interested in prosecuting the Tory government that actually enabled, encouraged and participated in this massive fraud.
Overall, utterly pathetic, spineless, lack of leadership.
I can't stand the Tories, but at least Rishi actually had the balls to decide something publicly on HS2, I think it's wrong but at least he decided something.
Sunak decided nothing until the absolute last moment possible. Definitely not worthy of praise at all.
Well, I think he decided some time ago and then lied about having made the decision only to then make the decision.
I honestly, despise this lot but nothing Labour is saying is getting me excited, nothing at all.
