UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
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.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Remember Ed Miliband? He was a terrible politician because someone took a photo of him at the precise second his face looked funny while eating a sandwich.
But yeah, Mordants the next leader because she dressed nice and carried a sword once.. FFS.
That feels like a real sliding doors moment in modern UK life - because of that sandwich we got Brexit and years of Tory misrule.
Probably wasn't even British bacon FFS.
It'll be that Russian bacon, coming over here subverting our political process.
Though it's all a bit jokey, I also kind of believe that's to some degree true.
It's the new generation's "If you discover time travel, go back and kill Hitler".
I have said before that I'd go back and slap the buttie out of his hands. I mean, it wouldn't be the first thing I'd do after inventing time travel but it's in the top ten.
Next day news. Labour supporters invent time travel. To abuse Jewish eating bacon.
You just can't trust the motives of the left wing elite.
