UK Politics
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! :'(

Thanks. Sorry for not being clear earlier, especially with giving the wrong year! I was writing long text on another thread. I was referring to Labour losing the general election having been a long way ahead in the polls before it was called. It's not a forgone conclusion, it depends strongly on how people choose to use their vote.
Ah yes I did wonder what the date was about.
It definitely seems more likely labour then any other party, Tories are jumping ship to labour but you are right, its not finite till the votes are counted.
Are you voting?
I agree with all of that, and yes, definitely, I always do.
