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! :'(

Science minister Andrew Griffith took the seemingly unusual approach of trying to woo voters as his party flatlines in the polls on around 20 per cent

Seriously need a French Revolution 2.0 and remove all of these fucks that don't seem to understand how fucked up the economy is...

Exactly: They don't understand how it puts their head on the chopping block ... or SHOULD, but if the UK is anything to go on, people are far too interested in civility to do a silly little thing like scrubbing greedy evil from the world.

I like to think that we the ppl do have a limit and shit will explode. Problem is, what will replace these shitstains and will it be better.

"...shit will explode"

Exactly. It's going to be a shit show. I wish people were smart enough to head these problems off before they have to explode to change...

Problem is we as ppl have a very short memory. I mean look around, all that “this must never happen again” yet its all happening again. Nazis, deceases that where gone are back because idiots, genocide everywhere and so on. No i think (and i hope i am wrong) shit will explode but instead of better things are gonna get worse and stay that way for a while.

and then the, "getting better" side will never reach the same heights.

Humanity really is a failed species.

Mocking the peasants is one of the ruling elites' favourite thing to do!

They should do it more often, louder and more public.

Maybe these brain dead idiots will finally wake up.
