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! :'(

This was pretty inevitable. If people were burning down 5G masts because it gave them spaces AIDS or was part of Bill Gates' efforts to hack their children to become surly and uncooperative then something nominally based in reality was always going to get out of hand. I say nominally because you don't do this because you object to paying a few quid, you do it because you've drunk the 15-minute-city Kool-Aid (and I'd bet they believe an awful lot of other conspiracy theories too).
