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.

It's impressive to see the other parties unified in their strategy, which also seems to be a smart one. I heard Zack Polanski say (can't remember when) that the people of Clacton need to reject Farage, so I wondered if they were running a candidate, but that's not the case either.
Maybe they're not unified because they believe in a common good, but instead because it serves the interests of each of them to see Farage make a fool of himself and potentially lose support in the polls
Five Mil Froggie is gonna claim they're bullying him by not ganging up on him.
Reform UK Ltd MPs are already trotting that line out in morning TV interviews.
They already said they aren't fielding a candidate there.
