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! :'(

Family. Country. Flag. King. Sunday dinner. The village green. Fish & Chips. God. Now that's patriotism. Who wouldn't want a bloodbath to save all that from the fiendish Enemies of England who eat babies and don't speak the King's English and whose leader is insane?
Look, if you don't have anyone in your life who you'd be willing to fight to defend, then I'm sorry. I'm sorry you can't countenance the idea of a community that isn't built on flags and monarchies. But they exist.
Pro patria mori, my friend. Pro patria mori. Go in peace.
