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! :'(

I'm tempted to assume you're a Labour equivalent of a blue MAGA, but I will assume you're actually confused so I will clarify.

Several years ago, many postmasters were charged with criminal charges for stealing money that never existed, there was a bug in the Fujitsu software. Badenoch maintains to this day as far as I am aware that the postmasters DID steal the money and perfectly conspired to frame Fujitsu. Perhaps you are unaware of this incident or her position on it.

I'm not debating the definition of neoliberalism with someone who doesn't characterize a pro-privitization "centrist" who extirpated all the labor advocates out of Labour as neoliberal and then goes all patronizing in a frankly asinine way, sorry.

I am also not debating if it is possible for one of the two major UK parties to regain power within a decade while Starmer's Labour is already underwater in polls. You're a VERY condescending person, you might want to work on that if you actually want people to engage with you.
