General Discussion for politics in the UK.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and either a link to reputable news source, or be a text post.

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.

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.

Competitiveness counts for little when there are barriers to our competitive service sector even selling their services in the EU.

Competitive in financial services? Doesn't matter, as we don't have passporting anymore, so British banks and insurers have to set up on-shore locally-regulated entities to sell their services in the EU.

Competitive in professional services? Doesn't matter either, as there's no longer any mutual recognition of professional qualifications.

Etc.
