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! :'(

And if you think cutting taxes will make it better then you're hopeless.
An extra 100£ per month wouldn't have stopped your ass from bleeding or fixed your abscess, but cutting taxes will mean that it will take even longer to get the services that already take too long to get.
People like you never win when taxes are cut, but people like you are also gullible enough to believe conservatives when they tell them cutting taxes will improve their life.
You can't blame someone for being disenfranchised after being in a lose/lose situation the last ten years.
