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 that price almost certainly doesn't include the cost of hosting the vulnerable refugee that Rwanda sends to the UK in return.
Oh that's brilliant! I wonder if all those foaming at the mouth about how we are getting rid of unwanted forriners realise we'll get some refugees in return.
Very few do, I think. It's been in the deal since the beginning, although until the recent re-write it was Article 16. Same wording as before, different article number.
The House of Lords have asked the government repeatedly just how many migrants the UK will accept in return, and the government have dodged and not answered. For all we know, it could be 1 for 1.
