Why the fuck does Labour keep alienating the exact kind of people they should be helping? The worst thing is that you're fucked either way because the Tories and Reform would probably be even worse.

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.

Reading another news source their concern seems to be that local councils couldn't afford it. I don't think they've weighed up the benefits of helping disabled people into work (let alone just the general wellbeing benefits).
Also, disabled people aren't just those in wheelchairs.
