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.

What will we use all that land for if not shooting grouse? You already banned fox hunting, so can't use it for that. Badger baiting maybe? That's still legal. Maybe we could fill it with horses and whip them? I'd say we could breed a bunch of dogs with breathing problems and watch them suffer, but there's not much blood there. How is a member of the aristocracy supposed to do animal cruelty these days? It's like they're trying force us to have "empathy" or whatever the plebs call it.
