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.
Hood said: ‘We got to the start of the fourth verse, and the chairman of the council started banging his gavel.
‘I remarked, “But I’ve got another three verses”. He told us both to sit down immediately and that I would be receiving a letter.
Sounds like the chairman doesn't know his own rules. Typical for Reform fascists. "Do as I say not as I do" except they did say and even put it into writing and still aren't happy.
do as i meant not as i said!
I would be receiving a letter
From a secret admirer! 🤭
LOL fucking twats.
Props to the Greens for even knowing there’s more than two verses.
Lol
Afaik there's only "officially" three verses, the second, about scattering the Kings enemies, isn't normally used because it was considered too violent after WWII. There was a fourth, about Marshal Wade crushing rebellious Scots, but it hasn't been used for several centuries.
Never thought I'd see the greens wanting to sing about crushing rebellious Scots 😅.
I knew I liked the greens for a reason.
