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! :'(

About fucking time.
I know right, I can’t remember a more cruel and callous Home Secretary
Cruella Braverman.
I always preferred Suella De Vil.
Fun fact: her name isn't actually Suella, it's Sue Ellen Braverman. Suella was a choice. She chooses to self-identify as a name that rhymes with Cruella.
Fun fact - she was named Sue Ellen after the Dallas soap opera character.
Sue Braverman.
That's not a bad idea actually
I assume Priti Patel'll be next then.
And it's not for lack of competition.
