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 thinktank says
Labour may have
Well I'm glad that's all confirmed then.
And then there's some of us dealing with previous government and HMRC changes that fucked us over by making us "employees" when we aren't and dont want to be.
But this is by the reputable newspaper Morning Star. How can we possibly doubt it
Why on earth would the Labour party be looking out for the interests of laborers?
That's just an absurd idea.
The Autonomy Institute said the party’s decision to drop a commitment to introduce a single “worker” status during the current parliament “could mean that the pledge has been kicked into the long grass or, worse, permanently postponed.”
Not much of a story here
