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.

They're literally murdering thousands of people, but me questioning why a non-european country is participating in a european event is hatred?
Bore off
Why not say that, instead of beating round the bullshit bush? Numpty.
Is asking why Australia IS allowed to take part - but the USA not also hatred?
No. It'a clearly the Lemmy delusion where everything must somehow be about Israel.
Well the general theme of the thread was about just that. And its been pretty much a hot topic everywhere else when talking about eurovision.
But as it stands I was actually genuinely curious as to why they were in it. Australia being in it is so absolutely absurd it didnt register with me.
Shouldn't the UK also be barred from entry bearing in mind a majority of this country declared it was opposed to the Euro vision?
May as well be based on the 2026 result.
