General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both [email protected] and [email protected] .
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.

Starmer defends sandwiches as Badenoch says they are 'not real food' [yep, real headline] (www.bbc.co.uk)

Mainly sharing because of how insane Badenoch is. 'Shall I tell everyone I skip lunch and just eat steak at my desk? Yes, that'll make me seem relatable.'

EDIT: Huh, the headline in the article is different from the one on the homepage, so now I seem insane. Touché, Kemi.

BBC changed the article. Yesterday there was the ‘not real food’ one, later followed by Starmer’s defence of the sandwich. The ‘not real food’ quote is still in the spectator article linked in the BBC one. So OP, you are not the insane one here
