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! :'(

Yep. They know how to do front pages. Also the last place where real investigative journalism takes place.

I love the eye. Their front pages are fantastic.

Joke will be on us eventually. The man is probably plotting his comeback already.

Has Ian Hislop always hated Boris? I remeber him skewering bozza on Mock the Week back before he was PM.

Have I Got News For You created the popularity around Boris Johnson. I think they feel just a little bit responsible for his rise to power.
