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! :'(

Personally I think he needs to be sensible and follow Brown's lead by keeping the economy steady and stable in the first term whilst driving down inflation and reducing interest payments. Stability first then growth and spending if allowable in the second term.

Some of you might disagree 😉.

Resulting in the two leading parties having very similar policies and the left wing being left politically homeless.

That's by design. Welcome in the fake democracy of capitalist countries.
