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! :'(

focusing on the leader is ok but its not the main course. This lead as long as it holds will bring so many centre left and left MPs to Parliament its going to rival 97 if not better it. The policies will have to come from Conference in summer, so Starmer will fight a manifesto of Labour issues. What starmer is doing is making sure he dosnt spook the horses like Corbyn did, it was close but not over the line. We have to get it over the line, we have to kill these parasites and consign them to history.
