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! :'(

I don't why this is a surprise to anyone. For as long as I can remember (and longer than that still) the US has been about America First. Nothing it has done in it's entire existence says otherwise. Obama and Biden have fooled people into thinking they USA is some honest broker of peace and stability in the world when in reality it's the same old self interested, blackmailing, bullying vacuous country they've always been. Trump merely doesn't show any pretence about it.
