United Kingdom
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.

Progress is progress, no matter how small.
I don't think UK is progressing. To be honest it seems to be regressing these days. Each new day it's becoming more and more a police state with secret policing and surveilance powers being passed.
JFC ya'll forgot real fast what it was like with the Tories in power.
That's the point. It was happening under Tories and continues to happen under Labour. Either way, you seem to be very invested in supporting them as an outsider.
Yeah because I want to keep our enemies down: Tories, AfD, and Republicans are the same vein and the failures of the USA's DNC and the German SPD and Greens could happen to the UK as well.
Swapping out one government for another with identical policies on key issues like sustainability, xenophobia, and genocide is not progress.
Ah yes. Key issues. Those issues. We all know the ones. Just not taxation. Not funding services like hospitals, nurseries, mental health. Not the environment, either. Actually very little they agree on other than Defence and Law Enforcement.
