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! :'(

They know the young won't vote for them anyway, so they're hoping this will do something to stem the tide with the rest of the population who would have to do the service
It's worse than that, they have an existential crisis due to older voters not wanting them. For decades as people got older they started getting more conservative (small c) in their views. This has stopped happening on a scale that it once did.
Their voters are literally dying and not being replaced. It's mainly because people around the world have not been able to generate wealth and assets to the extent that generations before them have.
Good fucking riddance to them all.
People who know that their own actual kids won’t be sent. Just the poor kids whilst their own kids get bone spurs.
People who's kids have grown up but are too poor to be able to have kids of their own?
So they've decided to possibly sacrifice the young in the name of getting the middle and older aged peoples votes? And the only other policy proposal I've heard from him is flying people to Rwanda to "fix" immigration?
Jesus Christ your politics suck. Hopefully, yall vote them out and fix things a bit.
