General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, 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.
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.

In what way does that quote answer their question?
It depends on which "them" is being referred to in OP's comment. Assuming "them" are the protesters, then the answer provides what the protesters said, or at least what the organisation they represented said.
Why would you assume that? It was obviously asking about what comment the politicians have made, from the fact that they were asking about whether "they" had commented "on the reason for the protest, or just the act".

Yes, it's very easy to make a bad faith argument if you just randomly pull quotes, rather than actually looking at context.
