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! :'(

Here is an interesting analysis piece on the decline of the UK Conservative Party from another user at squabbles. It gives an analysis of factors contributing to their future prospects.

Note: I'm not the author of this piece and all credit goes to the original poster.

I feel like they are aware to some degree, as there voter base shrinking does get talked about. But they seem to be doing nothing about it. There social media on Instagram is predominantly aimed how there stopping the the boats. Where this to me would be the perfect platform for them to be announcing policy's at helping young people. So perhaps your right to question whether they believe it.

Human nature does not require that our actions be a reflection of our beliefs, don't you find?

Indeed, I do agree.
