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! :'(

One in six Tory voters are likely to be dead by the next election. Assuming nothing else changes, the total impact of demographic change alone would mean +29 seats for Labour and -34 for the Cons (x.com)

So we need to move to nationalised breeding programs and state raising of children.

That's been tried, didn't work out well.

Did you get the very first job you applied for?

Win the very first game of any sport.

Yeah you get the point. As much as I am kidding about removing children from parents etc.

Something failing in the past is not evidence of it invalidity as a solution. Just the need to reevaluate the methodology.

Maybe matrix should be our movie rather the logins run on that part. ;) remove all human interaction untill adult and brainwash the little shitheads to vote appropriately.

I have yet to win any game of sport, unless games count.

Grins no difference here. I wanted to use England World Cup. But other then 66 I have absolutely no idea if we ever won before that.
