General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
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.
What are Labour scared of? I can understand the Tories dragging their heels. But why is Labour in a tiz about this?
Pass that act of Parliament get him removed. It's not a fucking birth right, it's a privilege to serve as a royal. And if he doesn't want to then he can fuck off to the US like his nephew.
But the prime minister is reluctant to act without the input of the King.
Yes, that powerful powerful king with dictatorial powers that ultimately decides the outcome of each election....
That will teach him.
