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.

Those who know me and Tony will know that we have different styles, but on many matters of substance and philosophy we agree. So while the Whatsapp messages will definitely be shorter and there’ll be fewer of them, there is much of his work that I will continue.

As I prepared for tonight, I studied Tony’s lectures and those of his predecessors. ChatGPT and CoPilot helped speed up the process. There is definitely a formula! A manifesto is often the first lecture in the series and then context – whether it is Covid, an integrated review or war in Ukraine – context drives the content.

I'm sorry, what?

WhatsApp, ChatGPT, and CoPilot being used by Chief of Defense? I know we're a vassal state of the USA but at least attempt to have some form of independence.

If he wants us to step up he can fucking start himself by not relying on American corporate tech for matters of defence.

'I studied Tony's lectures and those of his predecessors with ChatGPT' gives me the same feeling as when my medically blind grandfather gets into the driver's seat. And he's been dead for decades.
