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.

Has UK regime lost its fucking minds?!
They care more about isrselis doing their genocide in peace than providing basic services to their citizens lol
Good thing the UK normie is so willing to take all that D while keeping it calm 🤡
Hardly. They've fully supplanted themselves to their American cousins, because they know who signs the checks. The British upper class lives and dies by the Wall Street financial system. That means leaping every time an American President blows the whistle.
In this case, the American President is fully in the tank for the Israeli Zionists, because he sees the country as a knife at the neck of every other Middle Eastern satrap. And the Brits, who are still mortified over the Suez Crisis, have never passed on a chance to humiliate and desecrate an Arab nation in spitting distance of that critical trade route. So of course they want to tamp down any domestic opposition to ruthless imperial control of the region.
The rabble don't understand how much of the modern British state relies on occupation and rent-extraction in order to keep the western oligarchy fat and happy.
