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! :'(

I generally don’t believe anything printed by the Torygraph. I’m not going to donate my data or any money to them so I can only read the headline, I’m guessing they are putting a really negative spin on it? ‘Labour will tank the economy’ and make things much harder for already ruined businesses (while not mentioning what spent the last 14 years ruining them)
I’ll just be glad to be well enough to get back to work, a 4 day week may get me back much sooner.

The Torygraph gets neither payment nor ad impressions from that.
Yeah but those archive sites are a bit dodgy, they poison DNS requests and it cannot be resolved with many privacy-focused DNS providers.
archive.md, archive.ph, archive.today should not be confused with archive.org, aka The Way Back Machine, run by Internet Archive. The former are basically impersonating them (although they do at least get around paywalls better).
That's why I use them as there aren't many paywalls they can't get through.
Ah yes I always forget about the archive!
I was so close… petrified businesses not ruined businesses, they are just scared of being ruined.
FYI archive.md and all those others are not affiliated with archive.org, run by Internet Archive.
