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! :'(

Lmfao, I guess he he has to paint the door red, otherwise he's indistinguishable from the previous resident..

Sorry Larry - the people have spoken. We have a new Chief Mouser now, more aligned with the Labour government.

The real force in No 10 if we give him a chance.

[–] HumanPenguin@feddit.uk 9 points 4 months ago

Since getting hired. He has managed to remove 5 shitty PMs. Pretty sure he took the chance on his own back.

Geniune question, what happens if PM is allergic to cats.

[–] cupcakezealot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 4 months ago

if it were up to me we'd just get a new prime minister and keep larry

10 downing street is a maze.

Larry was not the first cat. In the past, the cat has been kept out of rooms used by staff allergic.
