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 ain't listening. They just think it was done the wrong way.

Completely ignoring the fact, remainers told them all the promises were mutually exclusive. So 0 majority existed for any single way.

So what ever they consider the correct way. Would have lost the ref if stated at the time.

That was my thought at the time. There were multiple Brexit's being discussed during the referendum. It was a recipe for no one being happy with the result.

If we ever decide to go back in I hope we've learnt our lesson and either make parliament make the deal and be accountable for it or a two stage referendum, in principle and then on the negotiated entrance terms.
