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.e. all those people claiming “depression” and “anxiety disorder” and “ADHD” are just malingerers who are stealing from their employers and/or the Hardworking Taxpayer, and just need a kick up the arse.

Wes Streeting should review himself instead because this level of callousness probably warrants a mental health diagnosis of some sort.

Wes Streeting wouldn't know compassion if it buggered him
