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! :'(

I wouldn't put too much emphasis on random things Trump idiots say though. The Trump administration basically is a sack of cats as far as discipline goes and people to have a tendency to just say random stuff which isn't necessarily policy.

There's very little support for selling arms to Israel. You don't need international relations with the potential Trump government to really come into it.

There's little support for selling arms to Israel except by the Military Industrial Complex. They've spent years manufacturing consent from the public to keep selling arms to places that are all but guaranteed to start wars and/or commit war crimes.
