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! :'(

Question because I don’t remember. I am registered to vote via post because I’m currently living abroad. I re-registered a month or two ago because I knew this was coming. Now I’m registered already, what do I have to do? Does my ballot just come in the post automatically? Or do I need to trigger it somehow?
Congratulations on you foresight, and for acting on it!
I was abroad in the last GE. I received my postal ballot a few weeks before election days. Just follow the notice and return it timely, and you're golden!
If you are worried, you can contact the Council where you registered, they might be able to provide a timeline.
