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! :'(

I don't want to know.
Until it's actually election time, I don't want to know what their vision is.
They can't "Brexit" any harder than the Tories have, and if they say anything negative about the obvious deficiencies of Brexit ahead of the election, they give the Tories ammunition to drum up more tribal support.
Let the real-world consequences of Brexit play out and speak for themselves. For now.
They are probably right to stay silent on it, and probably not mention it when campaigning. Unfortunately a lot of their core voters supported Brexit, so they don't want to alienate them (see what happened last time when they lent their votes to the Tories).
