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! :'(

He can agree with the referendum and say we won’t join whilst he’s leader. But to say lifetime is a long fucking time

It's almost as if he needs to say these things to get elected.

I don't credit that one bit. Going back is an increasingly popular view, and then there's the whole Russian interference angle; it was a bad idea with a fumbled execution. Why commit, because it's gone so well for us?

Because it'd be political suicide to go back on it.
