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.

I've read the letter. I'm not clear about the scenario this is addressing, where the party fails before it has begun. Is there some disagreement about the direction of the party and therefore an alternative proposal somewhere?
Yes, there seems to be an internal split among the MPs.
Hopefully they sort things out. It's not a good look for potential leadership if they can't.
I'm not signing the letter, but that doesn't mean I'm not interested or invested in the outcome. I'll see how things shape up and wait for some communication from a unified party.
