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’m wondering if it’s anything to do with us not being in the mean and nasty EU.

This really just sounds like dictator bullshit... No logic to it other than "I am the leader and I like them so they get a pass." Ffs...

So they're protected somewhere between 2 hours and 4 years?

Remember the NAFTA-Deal he negotiated and then called one of the worst deals he has ever seen?

Starmer kissing the pinkie ring paid off I guess, well done to him for navigating that
