There is a quote from Davos awhile back where someone asked the elites how to prevent an uprising they were worried about, and the economist told them ‘raise wages’. and the elites just looked at him and ask him for a more practical answer.

I’m sure it has nothing to do with any political choices that have been made over the last decade or so.

Links to another news aggregator rather than directly to article. The article is from Sky.

Ground.news is actually pretty cool. It aggregates all articles it finds on a certain topic/headline, attempts to summarise them, highlights the publications political and general biases.

It’s a good way to consume news, in my opinion. Besides - it’s one extra click to get to any of the associated articles.

This one?

The waiting lists were well beyond awry before anyone took any strikes.

The government’s refusal to negotiate continues to be childish.

Yes peasants fight each other while I let my Crew pocket all that profit.

It used to be worker got fucked and customer got good service, daddy got profit.

Nowadays service is shit, worker is in poverty and daddy got even more profit…

Yeah, but have you seen how cheap TVs are? I mean, barely anything else has gotten better and more affordable, but, like, look at the TVs.

UK Politics

!uk_politics@feddit.uk

Create post

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.

!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(
