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.

Why is it never... "neo nazi and far right coalition hold power accountable and crushes coruption". The period and not a "?" was on purpose.

Because the far right don't care about the cause they just care about using the cause to achieve power.

What do you mean?

There were Nazi salutes and 'White Power' chants on the streets of Southampton

Isn't that just a normal day?

Surely just a coincidence that there's a by election coming up.

It would be darkly funny if, after a couple of weeks of Labour desperately glazing Burnham, he gets swatted aside by some bug-eyed reform Neanderthal and both Burnham and Streeting are out of jobs.

Terrible, but darkly funny.

It wouldn't be funny though would it because it would mean we would be on the road to a fascist regime. You have to have the short-sightedness of the heavily concussed beetle to think like that.

Streeting is still an MP, so still has a job. Andy has all his hopes on this election.
