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 more indicative of tory support in a tory heartland.
We know an area that voted this woman in with a very large majority. Is likely not to be enammered with labour. Even when as right wing as they now are.
So in this situation who do you think the people who supported 2019 tories but are now pissed are going to vote for. No vote will always be more likely.
Now when other parties are running national campaigns pointing out how important a vote is. But honestly no vote here was going to make a measurable difference to the near future.
