No I don't think so. I certainly didn't read it like you're reading it.

Who owns the fiscal hole? Labour currently do as they are the government.

Labour's fiscal hole.

It is an openly biased choice of wording.

We'll have to disagree on that. But if you feel strongly then you can always write to the press complaints commission and ask for a retraction or rewording?

Lol. Press complaints commission don't care about bias.

Try adding the quotes back into the phrase you copied. Really changes the intent.

OK, well you can either complain to the press complaints commission, to the FT, to the Labour party, or me.

One of these options isn't going to give a shit.

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! :'(
