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! :'(

If you can't defeat this unless bucket of tory rejects that were never supposed to advance further than the back bench with policy, and have to build a "bulletproof" manifesto. Then you've no hope.
Unfortunately that's the general environment with the news, and I don't want to see another round of billboards saying "Labour want to murder your babies, kill your military, and shut down your hospitals" when talking about a modest proposal.
Did you say the same last election? I'd rather the other parties take things as seriously as possible rather than being complacent.
