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! :'(

Sunak is already laying the groundwork for a withdrawal, within hours of the court ruling he has been talking about changing laws and "revisiting international relationships".
I think this could become a big battleground approaching the election, for the worst possible reasons.
We're not going to leave the ECHR. Sunak knows it's daft to do so, but like everything to do with politician statements on migration, it's all about sounding good and doing absolutely nothing.
Cameron knew leaving the EU was stupid, so he called a referendum for it and caused us to leave to EU. These people are stupid.
Aye I watched PMQs also. He mentioned it in the opening statement, and then used a stool to ask the question so he could reiterate the point. Pretty stupid imo. Starmer has to get this message across as to why it is extremely bad for the people of the UK to leave the ECHR.
I will ofc be writing to my MP.
