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! :'(

Kinda politics, kinda culture. Definitely both. Thoughts?

I left America because both major parties form a sinister coalition that is inimical to the interests of the electorate.

Joke's on me, I guess.

You could've done some research before (presumably) moving to the next best example of such a thing in the world

[–] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I did! Turns out I'm a real person in reality, so my options were limited.

Yeah, I'm sorry, didn't mean to come across so snarky to you, I really just wanted to rag on England (specifically)

I left the UK (not from there originally) because I didn't like it there, but I'd still move there from the USA

I never thought England was a perfect place, but at least there is something resembling a social fabric and it's possible to live car-free.
