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! :'(
I'm not British but if this guy is so scared of his constituents stabbing him, why not just wear an anti-stab vest? You could be relatively safe and still able to talk face to face. Also just put some metal detectors up.
They probably want to stab him on his stupid face.
On, in or around most likely.
Or just use a polycarbonate screen like banks do.
MPs having to wear stab vests is not a good thing.
They don't have to wear stab vests. Literally no MPS use a vest. He's just a disingenuous twat who has thought of an excuse which isn't very clever and is easily disprovable, but he is sticking with it because his tiny mind can't come up with another idea.
He isn't scared of being stabbed. He just doesn't want to go to Clacton.
