UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
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.
[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Starmer's really ballsed this up hasn't he. First unambiguous unforced error (some might say letting Elphicke into the party was an error but it's clear what the logic was there).
Yeah, I agree. I understand why he wants to push out MPs who aren't loyal to him, because the more loyalists you have, the easier it is to get things done. But the optics of this one were terrible. Still, she's running, now, and she'll almost certainly hold the seat for Labour.
