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! :'(
Why would we want savings?
We've had austerity since 2010 and "saved" "£350m a week" via Brexit and what has it got us so far?
Tax the rich and spend public funds on public infrastructure. Fuck savings, we're not a poor country, it's just distributed ridiculously in favour of arseholes.
But just think! You too could be enjoying an extra £20 a week in tax you haven't paid, while wondering where the NHS went as "I smoke fags so I must be working class" Nige and his toff mates saved billions.
They want to have their own British DOGE, because the American counter part was resounding success
That and the same bastard fascists are behind it.
Ooh are they gonna get that on a bus? Because once it’s on a bus, it’s incontrovertible.
I was gonna say, I am pretty sure I read that before. From that same person.
How very Trump/Musk. Straight out popularist's handbook.
Breaking news: Snake oil salesman claims snake oil is the answer
Farage claims a lot of things. Most of it is bullshit.

Send Elon over to help them achieve it. He’s done enough here.
