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! :'(

Right but if you were not in any danger of default they would think you a dick if you spent nothing on gifts. You're moving the goalposts. The statement was that no dividends should be paid while there is any debt, which as I say is a stupid one.
On the contrary, I'm putting the goalposts back where they were before you misunderstood them.
From the article:
Read the thread you're commenting on mate.
I have no objection to particular instances of imprudent dividend paying being criticised. I specifically rejected this absolute statement.
