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.

Once again. Speech is being banned. Only one of which was protested against in the comment I replied to: not the potential 14 years in prison, the banning from a niche part of a niche website. Not a false dichotomy. Nor is the violence choice a false dichotomy, it's pointing out the ridiculousness of complaining about vandalism under the shadow of genocide.
You want to talk about straw Manning, ctrl+f my comment for Hamas please. If it comes back with zero result you should apologise.
The arrogance of this sentence. Genuinely, be ashamed of yourself and apologise.
Israel will continue the genocide no matter what I do, that's correct. But we, as a nation, don't need to support them... Hence the protests.
Edit: as you believe I don't want to understand, I'm linking my usage of the word "genocide" to people you might believe do. Each link is different.
I wonder if any Nazi said "your honour, we had to commit a genocide, the Allies had hostages" at the Nuremberg trials. Probably, a lot of nonsense was tried.
