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.

[email protected] appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

Wasn't planning on going, but am now seriously considering it. Why is Cruella getting involved.

I don't know anyone who doesn't have sympathy for the Israelis that were impacted by the Hamas attack, but 10k Palestinians killed in 30 days is more than all the civilian casualties in the Ukraine war todate.

Wanting an end to Palestinian deaths is not the same as supporting Hamas.

What better way to honour the sacrifices of so many in wars of old by exercising your right and freedom to peaceful protest. Especially one that is a protest against the suffering and killing of innocent lives.

I just don't understand why the Tories feel they need to wade into this. It's such bad PR for them if nothing else. What are they gaining?
