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.

Yeah true, but imagine the same outcome and ridicule to the police officer.

Fair. The cop holding on to him looks particularly uncomfortable with the scrutiny of the public

This seems like a good avenue for civil disobedience. If people start wearing more "parody" t-shirts it should rapidly demonstrate the pointlessness of arresting non-violent demonstrators bringing the law into disripute.
