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.
We are friends with [email protected], a uk news community on a more general site.

I have no doubt GCHQ can crack the Iphone. Israel had a firm doing this 5 years ago. For apple to reset the PW, the phone would need to be connected online. And because of the content on the device, they would not allow that to happen. Johnson is a lying piece of scum without a doubt, but this is not an option they can use.
Just read what I said again. Mrs Spudger does this for a living. She knows what she's talking about. The phone doesn't have to be connected to the public internet. It can just be connected to a private wi-fi network for this purpose.
Phones like this are very tightly locked down. This is not the iPhone you may be used to. The management software even has its own private Apps Store. The user can't just add or remove random apps from the public App Store. The device manager can also prevent any deletion of content.
These things aren't left to chance, especially when we're talking about the highest office in the land.
