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.

1 billion is still a lot of profit made on something that we require to live (not chocolate specifically, but food,) even if the margin is low.
And the companies making the products are also profiting.
Looking at total profit instead of profit margin is pretty silly though. My food bill is not affected by how many people shop at the same supermarket as me, even though that increases the total profit of that supermarket. Should I be annoyed that my bill didn't go down in that scenario?
