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! :'(

It’s pretty wild to me that such a modest investment is deemed risky with the electorate.
That said, it’s clear the sun, the mail, the express, the telegraph will be looking for the tiniest arguable removed in Labour’s armour. So to my mind, this is more telling of embarrassingly low horizon of national ambitions coupled with a very aggressively right wind media. So, I can also understand the need to appear very very fiscally restrained.
Ah I’m new to lemmy. Seems I got censored for using a word which means a weakness or gap in armour, but I guess in the right context could be a racial slur lol
FYI, that's an instance specific thing.
