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! :'(

That is not true. When you stand for a party then you stand for the manifesto it presents. When the vote is based around that, then you have to vote with the party. It is what you were voted in for.
Johnson called a three line whip with the Patterson vote. This is where Tory MPs should have grown a pair. It was not part of the manifesto to change the ministerial code.
A lot of what Tories have voted in was in the manifesto. People were jumping up and down and pointing at it.
