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! :'(

I'm sure their solution will be to go more to the right. It is always is their answer. Which will keep harming them until a new Cameron comes round to try and detoxify them again.

If we had a better voting system, you wouldn't get these unstablely broad churches. We also have Parliaments always more reflective of voters wishes.

Yes, but if we had a fairer voting system then the Tories would murder premature babies and take soldier's armour away.

"We send £250 million per week to the EU, let's spend it on AV"

I think I've cracked it guys.

Clearly they know they're fucked if AV gets voted in... Went straight to using distressing imaging and quoting large sums of money.

They’ve already started painting over Mickey Mouse murals in asylum centres.
