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 don’t mean to be dismissive but every time I ask this question the reply is the same: Everything!, long list of things, links to articles, “do your own research”.
Unfortunately the media have programmed you to hate Keir Starmer in the same way they programmed you to hate the EU.
I’m going to respond to your first sentence, I know this will result in you not replying, or saying “what about xyz”, but I don’t think I can reprogram you out of everything, which I why I ask for one single thing.
I’m working class and disabled, I rely on my GP and specialist services. I’m currently waiting 2 years for treatment on the NHS, and my doctors surgery makes every excuse under the sun as to why I cannot get an appointment. Labour have just this week pledged 40,000 more NHS appointments. They are constantly holding the Conservatives to account in PMQs on their terrible record of not willing to negotiate with doctors over pay, NHS mismanagement, and their “40 new hospitals” lie. If I get treatment I might be able to start working again, the Tories want to cut my benefits so I am forced back to any type of work where I will get sicker.
