UK Politics
General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
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.

So just disregarding the Belfast Agreement then? UK detaining the peaceful Irish is how you awaken the less peaceful Irish.
By all means, have concerns, but don't throw the past out the window attempting to prove a silly point.
Burnham declared no referendum while he’s in office, another clear violation of the treaties pertaining to the Good Friday Agreement.
Are you talking about the UTV interview? He only said he wasn't going to discuss it at that meeting and expressed a general feeling that he doesn't think it's a good idea. That's not a violation of th GFA at all - not least because the PM isn't the one with the power to call a border poll under it
