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! :'(

All. A truly barbaric proposal.
The humans they traded like political chips should all get to go to Braverman’s house and piss on her doormat.
That's awful.
Here in this side, we have the governors of Texas and Florida spending millions in public money to fly and bus asylum seekers and undocumented immigrants to more liberal cities/states to cause a burden there. Primarily they do this as a political cudgel, petty punishment for Democrats recommending leniency in some circumstances.
The people being trafficked are sent thousands of miles away from the courts in which their cases are to be held, which all but guarantees that they will fail to show up and will face further punishment.
It's inhumane.
