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! :'(

maybe, but as long as theres zero other more important things voter wise its just too easy to ignore. We had a vote on it ten years ago, the entire subject was ridiculed but it came as part of the deal for the Cameron coalition government at the price of Lib Dem principles in other areas. Youve got so many issues, youd need the Conservative Party to support it for a bill to pass. In my wildest dreams the Conservative Party will dissolve into nothing by next year, replaced by a larger party like the SNP or Lib Dems as Opposition. Then we might get consensus on PR
