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! :'(

And a god tier trivia question in 20 years. Who was prime Minister when the queen died?

[–] FatLegTed 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That or which 'Prime Minister was outlasted by a lettuce?'

I just love she took the record of shortest serving prime minister from a guy who was already had the pneumonia that would kill him when he took office.

Yeah she's one for the pub quiz.

About the only use she is, aside from discrediting any policy suggestions that come out of the Institute for Economic Affairs (i.e. the Tuffton Street Twats).

I doubt anyone in the us has any idea who she is. Especially Trump followers

Many of us pay attention to world events. And I was cheering on the Lettuce!

She's a pub quiz answer.
