The rich ghoul fuck who wears gifted suits telling the cold, the hungry and the poor over and over to get back to work while their world crumbles. What a classic case of fucking around
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! :'(
A universal Government job guarantee, 40hrs a week, you can choose less hours if you want and you get paid minimum wage if you do atleast 30. Government can put the people to work directly or into training/apprenticeship. Have it be a legal right, see article 40 Soviet constitution.
Pop the housing bubble, landlords have too much power; build more social housing etc. Don't cut pensions and increase spending on NHS drastically to compensate for decades of austerity.
Of course, none of that is going to happen because U.K. because its political system is at a dead-end.
And Soviet communism is not a dead-end? 🤔
Have you tried turning it off and turning it on again?
