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.

Palantir UK chief Louis Mosley, grandson of British Union of Fascists founder Oswald Mosley

I know you don’t get to choose your family and it’s not Louis’ fault that Oswald was a fascist, but I do wonder if there were some “alternative” values that got passed down in the Mosley family

Even if he is perfectly normal, perhaps we shoukd question why palantir led by crypto fash thought he was the right person for the job.

Palantir should be nowhere near anything. I don't know why the 'evil' is in quotes.
