General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, 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.

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.

The best way to defend a country from the US is to not engage them in traditional warfare but use guerilla tactics until they give in and go home. They've lost multiple wars this way.

But also to not have multiple US military bases already on British soil.

I’m not a military person, but I feel that could be seen as tactically unwise…

Dont they technically own those bases? They ones i remember were very explicitly named RAF (Royal Air Force), don't know about other US branches presence

If they’re full of US military personnel, does it matter who legally owns the land? 😉
