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! :'(

It's super frustrating after several years of Stamers "ming vase" strategy the Labour party is managing to have a split over the definitions of ceasefire and humanitarian pause. Whatever motion eventually gets carried will have no actual effect on the ground in Gaza.

Labour are set to eat the SNP seats for lunch in Scotland. SNP outs forward a motion they know will be divisive amongst Labour members, splitting the vote so close to an election and weakening the chance of a Labour surge in Scotland.

Actual genius politicking from the SNP Labour are in a bind, hats off. Didn't see that coming from them.
