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! :'(

Obstructed a road, how dare they! Cannot believe they were supporting people who are so obviously breaking the law. Where were the police? People were just trying to get to work/shops/holidays. Protesting is fine but why do they need to impact normal people just trying to get on with their lives. What if an ambulance was trying to get through? What if it made someone miss work and got fired, we're in a cost of living crisis don't you know. Can't believe they did it so close to mother's day, people are just trying to enjoy their holidays with loved ones.
/s just in case...
