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.
There are some very dodgy people quoted in this article talking a load of crap but the Party has been previously successfully sued by its former deputy leader, an odious man named Sharar Ali, for how we handled his discplinary case for transphobia. However, we do have a right to set philosophical standards on the expression of discriminatory beliefs but have to be very careful how we go about that because we frankly can't afford another Sharar Ali.
