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! :'(

Action to stop e-bikes and scooters being ridden on pavements

So he's gonna push investment in cycling infrastructure, right? anakin-padme-2

An end to 'street scars', where gaps in street paving are replaced with tarmac

Can't wait to get to see where he gets the money to replace all the missing granite slabs around Leeds, never mind whatever expensive materials other cities were originally built with

A "galvanising" national goal to reduce the amount of litter

So he's going to push installing more public bins, right? anakin-padme-2

Councils to sort dumping of fridges, mattresses and broken cars

They... they do. Like you have to request it but they'll send a truck round to collect them.

Action to stop phone boxes and street furniture being covered in graffiti

Oh come the fuck on, the graffiti is the only decoration we have left.

Councils to sort dumping of fridges, mattresses and broken cars

This seems to be a standard attack strategy of Tories. 30p kept going on about it before he got kicked out of the party.

It's like they think It's everyone's number one concern or something. It's really weird.
