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.

Migrating millionaires make up less than 1% of millionaire populations A non-existent millionaire exodus is being widely reported in the news again today, despite the authors of the claim backtracking on it following recent criticism by tax justice campaigners. The media coverage is primarily based on a report published by Henley & Partners

I'm currently reading the book A Death in Malta

The author investigates the assassination of his mother, who was killed in a car explosion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daphne_Caruana_Galizia

The firm Henley & Partners is named in the book. They signed a secret deal with the Maltese Government to create shell companies and sell Maltese citizenship to Oligarchs.

It's astonishing that UK papers are quoting a report from Henley & Partners.

These people are vile scum.

Need an ITV drama before the general public will pay attention.

I was aware of this whole thing, but I could probably do reading that wiki. Thanks.
