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.

Fuck a trickle.
Trickle down economics has never and will never work, it's a fucking lie.
Give us a wave, give us a tidal wave of benefits via the government taxing the cunts and giving that wealth directly into the hands of the population at large. Benefit society as a whole, not just the rich cunts at the top, and a tiny trickle for the plebs at the bottom because they need to pay us something to keep their offices running.
Tory policy dressed up in red. New Labour are useless.
