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! :'(

this is just useless piss spin that means absolutely nothing
the 'four day work week' was already a thing you could ask for, in the sense its your normal work hours compressed into 4 days, not an extra day off.
literally 80% of my team where already doing this with the conservatives in power, they have just changed the wording on it; complete spin.
Apparently it's more than just wording, it requires the employer to give a valid reason for refusing.
of which they have provided multiple that need no evidencing, it has nothing new.
