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.

NI and GFA shenanigans, Éire and the UK are weirdly connected in many ways to one another still.
Not necessarily weird. Ireland and the UK aren't considered foreign countries. Irish citizens can vote in the UK and join the military, as well as have right of abode. Passports aren't even needed for border crossings either. Mobile phone roaming is generally free between the two countries.
