UK Politics
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'm a relatively-informed American (or at least, I try to be) but I'm drawing a blank here. What did she do again?
She was British prime minister for a few weeks. She was booted out because her 'strategy' to 'revamp' the British economy crashed it extremely quickly.
Became Prime Minister, crashed the economy with Kwasi Kwarteng, killed the Queen, then said it wasn't her fault and that they should have gone further with their mini-budget. Now she's a Trumpette.
she crashed the economy by saying she was going to reduce taxes on the rich, so much so the bank of England had to step-in to shore up bonds.
