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.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Sending UK troops to Ukraine would not be an escalation, it would be a justified response in the same way that North Korean troops are in that same theater of war.

Russia seems to want to threaten World War 3. Is that the rhetoric you're using as well?

Well why don't you fucking volunteer to go Ukraine then if its so important.

I'll tend your wounds when you're home sweetie

Russia sending North Korean troops into Ukraine didn't start World War 3 why would this?
