UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
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.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

It is genuinely disturbing how much far right BS is being pushed onto people on social media. Happily not as much here but my tiktok is covered with the farmers protest and how the government is failing us when they've been in charge for less than a year and the last party has literally brought the UK to thw breaking point. Absolutely ridiculous.
People leaving millions to their kids and complaining the kids might have to pay the same tax as everyone else on the inheritance. Entitled parasites.
Which is why public lies spread with an intention to mislead the public should be a criminal offence.
