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! :'(

This is the best summary I could come up with:
An unverified video circulating online appears to show a Central line driver chanting "free Palestine" over the train's public address system.
British Transport Police (BTP) and TfL said they were urgently investigating the incident.
On Saturday, an estimated 100,000 gathered in central London to show solidarity with Palestinian civilians.
In the video being investigated, the driver can be heard saying "hope you all have a pleasant day today" and "keep all those people in your prayers".
The Met Police this week issued updated guidance around certain pro-Palestinian chants because of the strength of feeling they can evoke.
"We are aware of footage circulating on social media that suggests political comments may have been made by one of our Tube drivers.
