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.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

A wise position.
Basic principle of labours suggestion sounds fair.
But I would suggest if the gov dose set rates based on property size as suggested. It needs to also take into account occupancy.
A family of 10 living with 3 generations or more. Should not be paying higher per ltr than a single banker living in the same sized house.
Given they are including gardens in this. They also need to consider the risk of developers using it as an excuse to convert all gardens to housing. As the long term cost to society of no one having free space is higher.
