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.

Absolutely! It would have been a virtuous cycle:
Council builds house -> worker moves into house -> with house has enough stability to get a job -> works job, gets a few promotions, finds partner to settle down with -> couple work hard to save up to buy the house -> buy house from council -> couple settle into new house with kids they can pass the property onto -> council has enough money from that sale to build another house -> couple's kids grow up complete their education and need employment -> the grown kids move into a council house and start looking for jobs.
