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.

At the time of writing there's one response in this whole thread that isn't about Starmer, Corbyn, the Greens, Farage, or the crooked letterhead. Once again the Lib Dems demonstrate why they are the best chance for this country, and yet everyone ignores what they say.
People need to engage with the threat, and when you hear a party saying the right things, support them. Don't cut them down. They are ignored by the media who would rather amplify the voices of Farage, Yaxley-Lenon and Musk. If you agree with Ed Davey that the UK government needs to make sure people like Musk face consequences for trying to invite violence in the UK, be vocal about it - here and anywhere else you can be.
