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! :'(

Americans? Do they visit this place? Why would they?

Cause it's important to, at least, vaguely stay up to date o the news happening in countries that have a big presence on the world stage

I was there a few times. The beer was good and the pub atmosphere was kinda cool. Some random girl took me around the underground/after hours club scene in London once, so that was unique.

It was a good number of years ago though and lots of booze was involved, so I think I had some wicked-cool adventures?

Bad! Wrong!

The UK is a shitole beyond compare and I will have nothing good said about our shitole!

Well, y'all did give us the imperial system of measure, so I am really bitter about that. That is absolutely unforgivable, actually.

Because browsing new of all is the only way to use lemmy
