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! :'(

Tory peer Michelle Mone bought herself a yacht with profits from useless NHS protective gear. If Rishi Sunak is serious about restoring faith in politics, he should start here.

Other ventures include naturopathic 'weight-loss' pills, and a fake tan product via Ultimo Beauty.

Sounds like she's one of those people at the top of MLMs.

About as likely to take place as the second coming of my dude JC.

It's entirely possible there's someone in politics who can do this. That person isn't any of the current Tory leadership.

I guess drilling a hole in the side would do it?
