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! :'(

It's taken a while but it does feel like our message is getting through to even the most Blue corners of the land. Join us for a few rousing choruses at the next election.
Being a Celt and living in the south has been…interesting. Time for everyone to wake up and realise what these cunts are really about.
I’ll join in a chorus!
I don't think he realises that having a phone is vital and TVs aren't a massive luxury nowadays.
Oh he probably does...
Desperation is incredibly useful to anyone interested in exploiting others.
American here - I expect it's the same there, where if you'd like to get a new job, or keep a job, a phone is vital. Google Voice is lovely and all, but... It doesn't actually connect the call to me, and that's a problem when boss/hiring manager is calling. Or when your kids' school is calling. Or a doctor. Or.... Yeah.
What a cunt.
Google Voice isn't available in the UK. I tried installing it the other day.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Andrew Cooper reportedly shared a post on Facebook arguing that people should only seek help if they give up basics like TV and mobile phone contracts.
The Tory hopeful is seeking to replace former deputy chief whip Chris Pincher as MP for the Midlands seat in this Thursday’s contest – one of two crucial by-elections for Rishi Sunak.
A screenshot of the post – first reported by the Mirror – was later shared on the local Facebook page Spotted Tamworth alongside an anonymous message reading: “Lovely potential MP!!
Grilled on the social media post, Treasury minister Andrew Griffith praised Mr Cooper as a “fantastic” candidate – but did not dispute the veracity of the Facebook message.
Labour is hoping to flip Tory majorities in both Tamworth and Mid Bedfordshire in by-elections on Thursday which were sparked by the resignations of Mr Pincher and former culture secretary Nadine Dorries, respectively.
Mr Pincher, who represented the Staffordshire seat since 2010, stood down after being found to have drunkenly groped two men in an “egregious case of sexual misconduct” at London’s exclusive Carlton Club last year.
The original article contains 534 words, the summary contains 183 words. Saved 66%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
By the way, he lost, turning a safe 20,000 majority into a 1,300 win for labour.
