UK Politics
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! :'(

Lib Dems perhaps? Maybe the SNP doesn't get wiped out, that would be interesting. I know it's unlikely to happen, the UK is essentially a 2 party state at this point, but one can dream, right?
It's not much of an opposition if it's from the same political side though, is it?
The duopoly is boring and we need a new voting system to properly reflect the nation's views, but you can't have a centre-left government with a centre-left opposition, because there wouldn't be any opposition!
LibDems aren't the same political side. There's more the two opinions In politics.
Might as well be at the moment. Two centrist liberal parties, except the Lib Dems are slightly more progressive in terms of stuff like voting reform
