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! :'(

Because this raging economy is their pride? Or is it there ramping racism amongs its ranks? Or is it the overt corruption? Or their inaction against the obvious genocide in Gaza? Or the one in Yemen? Or is it the polluted rivers full of sewage? Or is their pride the fact that people can no longer afford to buy a home unless they get an inheritance? I don’t know man, maybe abolishing the non-dom tax stays could be just another humiliation for the sad sacks of spiderwebs that are the tories.

Ah you see. Non of those embarress tories, in the eye of people who give them lots of money.

Non dom status is a huge asset to tory doners.

And lers face it. Any talk about it will be about plans of they win the next election . Then after that election. Some economic disaster will mean now is not the time.

Its just about trying to win a few votes.
