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! :'(

Labour won't reverse any of the damage they can do now, so they'll do as much as they possibly can. They're in it for the power, and the wealth they can extract. The Tory MO, of course, but especially this generation of Tories. They have no politics bar the advancement of themselves and the people who will end up giving them overpaid jobs. Sunak doesn't need to work for a living but the pay off for him and his ilk is orders of magnitude greater than what we pay him to do the job.

His ilk, want jobs in five years, they want the power in five years. They want to ensure that more than they want six months more power this year.
