UK Politics
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.

Public transport doesn't work everywhere. It's great in big urban areas but once you get out into lower density countryside it's hard to run something comprehensive.
If the choice is between a diesel or an EV then we should insentivise the EV. However direct subsidies for buying cars probably won't work as well as widening access to charging. I see they are trying to make the process of adapting pavements for curbside charging easier which I think will help more.
Charging from the socket is about a tenth the cost of public charging infrastructure and with solar it becomes functionality free.
Where did you see the curb side charging stuff?
I hoped you had another source, but thank you.
