World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Mass migration isn't the problem, the problem is lack of oversight into what kind of people are coming into civilised countries, anyone that can so simply stab someone, lie to let them die shouldn't have ever been allowed to come into the UK or any other country that has proper human rights against murder and rape, but these people aren't educated and are incapable of integrating, so they shouldn't be allowed entry.
Proper oversight is needed so people that are actually interested in a better life can be given that chance and those that seek chaos should stay home.
Take off your pith helmet, Rudyard, it's not the 19th century any more. I'm surprised you didn't refer to them as benighted savages. Probably your vocabulary doesn't include the phrase.
Another expression that indicates you have nothing worthwhile to say.
If you're referring to Sikhs, you're wrong on both counts. Sikhs have high literacy, high educational and economic attainment, and Sikh communities outside Punjab are well-known for engaging constructively in civil society. Don't let anecdata based on one fucked-up young man and his fucked-up family mislead you about the bigger picture.
A) nice to see that you are concerned enough about Nowak’s death to respect his family’s wishes that it not be used to stoke division
B) Digwa is British

I made you a trophy for the most dogwhistles in a single comment today.
You are a racist piece of shit.
I'm currently working and living over 8 years in another country in a place that is about 1300 kilometres away from home so i'm kinda familiar with the whole process of moving to another country and making a life there but sure racism is what you got from my comment. And you are an ignorant twat.
Everyone here saw your comment for what it was. Go back to reddit
So you agree that we should be processing the asylum requests and then coming to a decision as soon as possible rather than simply leaving everybody in a state of limbo in some random hotel?
As always, your racist take shows that you don't actually know anything about the subject matter.

You literally said that the problem is a lack of oversight on the "kind of people" what kinds of people are you talking about? Are you talking about the habitual criminals that are easily detectable because of some physical trait? Maybe they have a particular style of facial hair, or a convenient "I am a gang member" tattoo, or perhaps it's just the colour of their skin who knows.
You're a racist, you might not think of yourself as a racist, but the way you choose to express yourself outs you as one.
More importantly though is the fact that you don't appear to have picked up on the key point, which is that these asylum claims are not being processed. You are angry about something that is in fact not happening, these people aren't been processed and let into the country despite being criminals, these people are not being processed yet are in the country anyway. If you want to solve the problem you actually have to solve the problem but the Conservatives decided to defund immigration precisely so they would be able to continue to have a group that they could hit with a big stick just to have something to keep the Gammons angry.
Hon, your dear Prince Andrew is in Epstein file.
Yeah but he just stabbed people with his cock and lied about it.
Also "hon" i'm not British and Epstein's files still haven't been fully released and there's a good chance there is a cunt from your country in those files.
What has Prince Andrew to do with mass immigration? Never read such nonsense, but what else can I expect from leftist 🤷♂️AFAIK they never work, always the others have to pay, never take responsibility for their actions, it is always the others’ fault … they are lost cases.
Now you can downvote me into oblivion, because this is the only thing you can do 😂😂😂
It was a suggestion that ethnic English people, even in the highest reaches of the establishment, are also capable of the most degraded forms of criminality. So why the focus on immigrants?
Do try to keep up.
You should probably sue your mother for poor quality workmanship when producing you, because I can't imagine being so dull witted that you were unable to work that one out.
Given the fact that Andrew is demonstrably British, I would suggest that the nationality of someone doesn't have much to do with their ability to be a criminal.
Also unless you are proposing to present us with a minority report style prediction system, I'm not exactly sure how anyone would have known that this particular individual was necessarily more a threat, than any other person from that nationality.
