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 thought this was a hoax the first time I saw this story. But apparently not. The man is becoming a parody of himself.

I heard Starmer on LBC last week refusing to defend ULEZ and Sadiq Khan.

Dont forget that Khan has green lit the Silvertown tunnel, which will have massive negative environmental impact on the east of London

Kind of, but right now all that traffic is pushed though the Blackwell tunnel, Woolwich or Dartford so if anything it's spreading it out a bit compared to now. That said, anyone using it will have to be ULEZ compliant now anyway.

I wasn’t aware of it. Now having read about it, I agree.
