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.

I like drinking beer, not just to get drunk but often as a simple past time. I regularly drink alcohol free beer when I don't want to consume any alcohol for any number of reasons and these days there a lot of them that are really good and I would prefer to drink that over a soda. I don't really have much love for alcohol free spirits however if you like the taste and process of making cocktails then it's probably also a good thing to be able to do that without getting drunk.
