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! :'(

Do you agree that Brexit has been "a pointless waste of time, money and effort"?

And now I can only be in the EU 90/180 days. I cannot live inside the EU. UK bought a Russian lie in big letters in the side of a bus and uneducated people bought it out of fear.

Apes stronger together!

If your relationship with the EU wasn't working for you, by all means leave, just don't drag everyone else with you who was perfectly happy with it. The youth of today now has no freedom of movement and less opportunity for work. Goods leaving and entering the UK from the EU are now much more expensive and many UK businesses either closed or moved out.

Stupid, stupid, stupid!
