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.

If they started explaining why we won't. It gives folk time to digest. Making clear pensions will always go up by inflation so no one would get poorer is a start. Then by next election, folk are ready for that possibility.
Of course it requires integrity and honesty. Something I'm not sure Keir has. We know Farage and Badenoch don't. If they avoid it, it'll become a large political problem which will cost them.
