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! :'(

Excellent! If he can find any candidates, this will split the far right vote.

I'm really worried The Onion will soon be running out of ideas how to maintain a satirical image, when the actual news are this absurd.

His party's 'charter' is such a joke. A national Bitcoin reserve, blockchain direct democracy, getting rid of 'LGBTQ+ propaganda' from schools so 'classrooms will no longer be battlegrounds for ideological warfare', but best of all is:

Replace modern “art” with statues and monuments honouring British heroes.

While the charter is full of AI 'art'. Suppose it's hard to pay for real artists when all your assets are being seized on account of being a sex trafficker.

Well that just ruined the word “bruv” for me.
