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! :'(

If you read his letter. He is useing government resorces to silance a critic of himself.
He claims it is Network Rail the engineer critisized. But over crowding laws and enforcment is a government job. His department in the case of rail.
Also the critisism thar the station is dangerouslt overcroded has already been made by the government road and rail safty department OOR. A non ministerial department under his department.
Also if he was correct he was chair of Network Rail from 2015 to 2023.
So he is very much using governmene resources and spending to restrict critisizing his own actions and roles.
Seriosly this is an extremely abusinve and narcissistic use of his power.
