UK Politics
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! :'(

How fast is 20 mph?
About 36 kmph.
36000mph? Wow!
Yes, 36000 metres per hour
Miles are really big
Zoom zoom!
25% faster than a quick electric scooter
You know those things can get up there now, right? Like 70+mph
They're amazing it's a shame all forms of electric scooter or electric powered vehicle outside of cars and motorbikes are illegal here.
And yet I see them all over the place
Yeah, talking about the much more common types you see people using more often in cities. Also why I didn't say 25% faster than the highest end ones
Around the speed of a quick push bike.
