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.

The Daily Mail has helpfully republished the cartoon to report on the story. Link to image, not the paper
Criticizing hardcore Zionism isn't anti-semitic. Equating Jewish people with these genocidal maniacs is though.
And the Lyndon B Johnson cartoon referenced.
I can see the issue as it's not Johnson operating on himself.
This alone doesn't seem bad. I can only assume the guardian had a growing file on him and this image tipped them over the edge.
