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! :'(

This screams Russian interference.
No. Do not spoil your ballot. Vote as your conscious demands.
Does it fuck. I am Scottish, not some Russian bot.
The Russians already won when they convinced the plebs to vote for Brexit to separate the UK the EU as they planned.
Indicating I would consider spoiling my ballot, then outlining detailed reasons as to why based on my local choices, should really tell you everything you need to know.

Well, shit. I just looked up the definition and never knew it was actually slang to refer to the lower class. My (low class) dad always used it as "idiot" and I never questioned it before. The more you know.
So stand up and run yourself, or spread the message of dissent. I think Labour are a lot better than the Tories, who are a total goon squad of moral and financial corruption. The SNP has wrecked many things in their pursuit of power but done little to actually help the country (Scotland). I saw the education system wrecked while I lived there. The police command concentrated in Glasgow was also ridiculous, instead of locally knowledgeable groups able to judge things for themselves.
Is our shit government and shit opposition also a Russian plot?
Well to be fair, I won’t be surprised if many Tories and Farrage’s circus are paid by Putin.
They're all on GB news since Russia Today got banned.
The sooner Brexit is reversed the better.
