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! :'(
@snacks
I think it's important for me as the OP to point out that telling Labour they've lost my vote is as important as my vote.
If there's a lack of push-back from the left regarding Labour's movement right, then they will assume this is what the voting public want.
I'm certain there are others that share at least some of my views on this.
A this late stage, the LibDems or Greens can't make a push to win.
I also cc'd my local LibDems and Greens in the same email re: a coalition strategy.
Yeah I don't see any point throwing a vote to a party that no longer has any of your interests at heart, if anything it just reinforces their decision if you do that
@solivine Agreed, but I'd caveat that there are policies that I may find worthy of my vote, it's just that there are many red lines and more that I've spelt out, that I don't wish to cross.
